Hair Magic Plus®

Overview

Hair Magic Plus is Kalmbach’s premium coat and wool supplement — a 16% protein, 15% fat pellet built specifically around hair and hide quality. The 15% fat is notably high for a coat supplement (most coat products are low-fat pellets), and the fat source (forage and grain by-products) contributes to skin condition alongside the biotin, Vitamin E (1,700 IU/lb), selenium yeast, and beta carotene. At 1,700 IU/lb Vitamin E, it’s the highest Vit-E supplement in the Kalmbach show line. Melatonin-free, making it safe for animals close to breeding or market. 30 lb package.

How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It

Hair Magic Plus is the coat quality investment supplement — started early (12+ weeks out) and run throughout the program for maximum wool density and shine. The high Vitamin E level distinguishes it from other coat supplements; Vitamin E supports skin health, immune function, and muscle integrity simultaneously. Feeders running Hair Magic Plus often don’t need a separate Vitamin E supplement. The 15% fat also contributes to a soft, lustrous fleece.

Real-World Feeding Rate

• Typical rate: ¼–½ lb/day for lambs throughout the program
• Introduction timeline: Start early (weeks 12–9) for full wool/coat quality effect

Common Deviations from Label

No deviations found.

Breed-Specific Notes

Wool breeds may see more visible response from the biotin + Vit E combination due to the direct relationship between these nutrients and fleece quality. No breed-specific feeding rate differences documented.
