When it comes to feeding sheep, choosing a high‑quality, nutritionally balanced pellet can mean the difference between average performance and exceptional results. T & R Sheep Cubes are one of Western Australia’s most trusted options — designed to support healthy growth, weight gain, and efficient feed conversion across all production systems.
Below, we break down what makes these cubes stand out, how to use them safely, and why so many producers rely on them.
What Are T & R Sheep Cubes?
T & R Sheep Cubes are highly palatable 6mm pellets made with quality grains, energy sources, and a balanced vitamin and mineral premix. They are designed for sheep across all grazing and production systems and manufactured fresh in WA using natural, GMO‑free ingredients.
The pellet size ensures uniform nutrition in every bite and helps minimise dust and feed wastage.
Key Benefits of T & R Sheep Cubes
1. High Energy for Optimal Health & Weight
These cubes are formulated with high energy levels to support optimum weight and overall health in grazing, breeding, and finishing stock.
2. Made from Quality Ingredients (No Fillers)
T & R uses high‑quality natural grains without nutritionally poor fillers. This means better feed conversion efficiency and improved animal performance.
3. Fortified with Vitamins & Minerals
Each batch includes a ruminant‑specific vitamin and mineral premix, supporting healthy growth, maintenance, immunity, and metabolic function.
4. Enhanced Rumen Function with Agolin Ruminant / RumiTech

- Buffers the rumen

- Enhances digestion
- Supports feed conversion efficiency
- Helps reduce methane emissions
5. Fresh, Natural, GMO‑Free, Antibiotic‑Free
The cubes are made from fresh WA-grown ingredients, with minimal processing to preserve natural flavour and nutrition. They contain no antibiotics or GMOs.

How to Feed T & R Sheep Cubes

Feed at 2%–2.5% of liveweight, as part of a balanced diet with access to clean, fresh water at all times. [thompsonan...ood.com.au]
