It is often difficult to achieve high growth rates in the young calf whilst building the all-important immune system of the young animal.
Micro-nutrients can play an important role in helping to achieve both objectives. It is often difficult to strike this balance with conventional feedstuffs/minerals alone.
Research work has shown that organically chelated trace elements, where the mineral is bonded to an essential amino acid, can improve utilisation by the calf. Trace element imbalances in the diet can either be naturally occurring or induced. The 'lock-up' of trace elements by heavy metals may lead to dietary imbalances.
Calf Care® is an unique organically chelated trace element and vitamin drench for dairy and beef calves under 3 months of age.
Calf Care® is formulated to provide calves under three months old with the optimum balance of micro-nutrients to help correct dietary imbalances. Achieving the correct micro-nutritional balance can help reduce the effects of stress, and help maintain good animal health.
Calf Care® can be given to all calves on the farm as well as 'bought-in calves, helping them to overcome the stress of handling and movement.
Calves can be given Calf Care® as soon as practically possible.
For weaker calves administer ENERGY BOOST PLUS® first followed by CALF CARE®.
Suckled or older calves should be carefully drenched at 4-6 weeks or up to 3 months of age.
Calves up to 6 weeks - 20ml
Calves 6-12 weeks - 30ml
Older dairy calves should be drenched with HEIFER CARE®.
Older beef calves should be drenched with LIQUITHRIVE CATTLE®.
