The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is reporting that ADM Animal Nutrition, a division of ADM, is expanding its recall earlier this year, to include the following additional products due to elevated levels of magnesium, sodium, calcium and/or phosphorus: Pen Pals Chicken Starter-Grower (Product Nos.70009AAA46 and 70009AAA44); Pen Pals Egg Maker Complete (Product No. 70010AAAE4); MaxLean GF Concentrate (Product No. 12354AAA); ShowTec Sow Ration with Thermal Care (Product No. 12343AAA); ShowTec BB 18 BMD (Product No. 18241AGNE4); ShowTec BB 18 BMD/DBZ (Product No. 18241PLM); ShowTec Hi Fat 18 BMD (Product No. 18007AGNE4); ShowTec Lo Fat 15 BMD (Product No. 15350AGN); MoorMan’s ShowTec Hi Fat 16 BMD (Product No. 16700AGN); MoorMan’s ShowTec Burst Starter w/DF DEN (Product No. 24320CVW); MoorMan’s ShowTec Sale Burst w/DF CTC/DEN (Product No. 24320AYWE4); Pen Pals Professional Show Rabbit Feed (Product No. 81657AAA); and Pen Pals Professional Rabbit 18 (Product No. 80033AAA).
Elevated levels of sodium can cause increased water consumption, reduced feed efficiency, egg production and growth rate. It also can be fatal in chickens. Elevated levels of calcium and/or phosphorus can cause reduced feed intake and feed conversion in swine, and elevated levels of magnesium and sodium can cause loose stools, reduced growth rate, and weakness in rabbits.
Four customers have reported complaints related to consumption of ShowTec BB 18 BMD – three related to low consumption and one reporting the animal refused to eat and is having belly pain. Three customers have complained about low consumption related to Pen Pals Professional Rabbit 18, and one customer complained about low consumption related to MoorMan’s ShowTec Sale Burst w/DF CTC/DEN.
