Processing Pellets are typically a mixture of several ingredients and have become a common form of feed for livestock. Pellets are made by taking a meal or mash, adding a slight amount of moisture, rolling into a ball, and compacting or forcing through die openings by a mechanical process. Ingredients in pellets include grains, protein sources, and occasionally flavor enhancers and medication. Pellets are the easiest form of feeding several ingredients to animals and are readily consumed by multiple species of livestock. (more information) (more information) (more information)Pellet

Pellet More Information Pet food and fish food are classified as pellets. They differ slightly from pellets fed to livestock in that they are more circular and typically have a higher moisture content. The higher moisture content is related to the added fat and increased animal products used in the feeds.
