Show & Glow

28% protein pellet for coat quality and bloom — linseed meal, dried whey, high omega-3 and omega-6; supports skin condition, hair shine, and overall bloom for all show sheep

Always read and follow the product label for feeding directions and copper safety before feeding to sheep.

Overview

Show & Glow is Kalmbach’s bloom and coat pellet — 28% protein built around dehulled soybean meal, dried whey, linseed meal, and grain products. The linseed (flax) base delivers high omega-3 fatty acids, while dried whey adds palatability and protein. The omega-3 and omega-6 combination specifically supports skin condition and the natural hair/wool shine judges reward. At ¼–½ lb/day for sheep, it’s a moderate-rate supplement. Available in both 10 lb and 50 lb packages, making it flexible for small-project buyers.

How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It

Show & Glow handles the coat quality and bloom work at a lower price point and simpler ingredient profile than Hair Magic Plus. It’s a starting-point coat supplement — linseed meal and dried whey are classic show-circuit coat ingredients. Feeders who want a straightforward omega fatty acid + protein bloom supplement without the full biotin/selenium yeast stack of Hair Magic Plus reach for Show & Glow. Some feeders stack both (Show & Glow for base coat nutrition, Hair Magic Plus for high-Vit E coat fortification).

Real-World Feeding Rate

  • Typical rate: ¼–½ lb/day for lambs throughout the program
  • Introduction timeline: Weeks 12–9 for maximum coat effect

Phase Protocols

Weeks 12–9 | Foundation Phase

Start for early coat and bloom foundation work.

Weeks 8–6 through Weeks 2–1

Continue at ¼–½ lb/day as daily coat supplement.


Stacking Protocols

Can stack with Hair Magic Plus for a more complete coat stack (Show & Glow for omega base + Hair Magic Plus for biotin/Vit E/selenium fortification). Pairs with Hard Drive for muscle and coat simultaneously — the linseed in both products contributes omega fatty acids from two directions.


Cross-Brand Notes

Comparable bloom/coat supplements:

  • Sunglo Epic — 12% protein; Diamond V Ice Plus; wool density focus
  • MoorMan’s ShowTec Fast Fuel — wheat germ/rice bran; coat + palatability
  • Show-Rite Stamina — wheat germ oil, high Vit E; coat quality

Show & Glow is unique in combining dried whey (palatability protein) with linseed meal (omega-3) in a simple pellet.


Budget Alternatives

  • Commodity linseed/flaxseed oil — omega-3 source at lower cost; lacks protein, whey, and mineral stack
  • Sunglo Liquafat — comparable omega-3 oil blend
