Building a Healthier Herd from the Inside Out with Trevor and Nichole Warren

In this episode of Horns N Hooves, we are joined by Trevor and Nichole Warren, the founders of North True Feeds. They share the science and passion behind their cold-pressed livestock tubs, explaining how this unique process preserves vital nutrients that are often lost in traditional heat-processed feeds. The Warrens dive into how their products, ranging from fly control with garlic to gut health support, are helping producers across the country achieve a more resilient and healthy herd.

Key Takeaways

Cold-pressing technology ensures that vitamins and minerals remain bioavailable and are not damaged by high temperatures during manufacturing.

Managing livestock health starts with the gut; when the digestive system is balanced, cattle are better equipped to handle stress and environmental challenges.

Natural ingredients like garlic and apple cider vinegar provide effective, chemical-free solutions for pest management and overall immunity.

Episode Highlights

Trevor and Nichole discuss the "incredible process" of creating biodegradable tubs that leave no waste behind in the pasture. They explain the specific benefits of their "Butter" and "Peanut" lick tubs and how these formulations cater to different livestock needs throughout the year. The conversation also covers the importance of empowering the next generation of farmers with hands-on nutritional knowledge.
