Shagedelics Top Dress (Part 1)
Pellet base of the Shagedelics melatonin hair growth program — designed to be fed with Hair Growth Pills for maximum coat development
Always read and follow product labels for feeding and sheep safety.
Overview
Shagedelics Top Dress (Part 1) is the pellet base of the three-part Shagedelics hair growth system. It is designed to be fed daily to provide a foundation of hair-growth nutrients, with the Hair Growth Pills (Part 2) added on top for additional melatonin control. The manufacturer recommends using Part 1 with the Pills for optimal results, suggesting the pellet alone provides some benefit but maximum results require the combined program. Priced at $84.95. Sold through Livestock Performance Products exclusively.

How Experienced Feeders Actually Use It
Part 1 establishes the daily melatonin and hair nutrient foundation. The “modular” design allows feeders to start with Part 1 alone for a lower melatonin baseline, then add Pills to increase the dose for animals that need more aggressive coat stimulation. Early introduction (12+ weeks out) is essential for melatonin-based hair growth programs — the hormone signal takes weeks to translate into visible coat development.

Phase Protocols
Weeks 12–9 | Foundation Phase
Begin Part 1 as early as possible. Melatonin-driven coat growth requires a long runway.
Weeks 8–6 | Condition Building Phase
Continue. Add Hair Growth Pills at this stage if more aggressive coat stimulation is desired.
Weeks 5–3 | Fill & Shaping Phase
Continue. Hair growth initiated earlier should be visible by this phase.
Stacking Protocols
System use: Part 1 (Top Dress) + Hair Growth Pills + Spray (Part 3) is the complete Shagedelics program. Standalone: Part 1 can be used without the Pills for a lower melatonin dose; add Pills when more coat development is needed.
