Purina lamb feed recall is expanded

12-06-2008 | |

The U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced the expansion of a voluntary recall of Lake Country- and Land O Lakes-brand lamb feed.

The FDA said the Land O’Lakes Purina Feed plant in
Fremont, Neb., has expanded the recall to two more of its lamb feed products
packed in 50-pound bags. The feed might contain higher than acceptable levels of
copper, posing a health risk to lambs.

The original recall included Lake
Country Honor Show Lamb Grower DX Pellets and Lake Country Honor Show Lamb
Starter DX Pellets. It’s been expanded to also include Lake Country Honor Show
Lamb Grower B30 pellets and Land O Lakes Lamb Grower-finisher B30.

The
recalled products have lot numbers ranging from Jan. 1, 2008, to May 30, 2008.
The numbers — printed as “8JAN01FRE1” and “8MAY30FRE1” — are formatted as
follows: 8MAY30FRE1 is 8=Year / MAY= Month / 30=Day of Month / FRE1=Plant
Code.

Honor Lamb Show Grower DX Pellets and Honor Lamb Show Grower
Starter DX Pellets were distributed in Nebraska, Kansas, Colorado, Minnesota and
Iowa. Honor Show Lamb Grower B30 Pellets and Lamb Grower-Finisher B30 were
distributed in Nebraska, Kansas and Iowa.
