SHINE ORIGINAL CALF MILK REPLACER

Description

Shine Original Calf Milk Replacer

• Shine original calf milk replacer is Europe’s number 1 choice for Once-a-day milk feeding.
• Once-a-day milk feeding has been proven worldwide for more than 30 years to produce calves on par with any other calf rearing system available. There are a few caveats.
• Calves must be fed a low heat skim-based milk replacer or cow’s milk fortified with a skim-based calf milk to ensure the milk forms a firm curd in the calf’s stomach and is slowly digested throughout the day.
• The milk replacer should also contain a blend of plant oils and buttermilk to increase digestion and dry feed intake.
• Calves must have access to roughage concentrates and fresh water.
• Shine Once-a-day fed calves receive the same amount of milk powder as twice- a- day calves, but in a smaller volume. The Once-a-day fed calves need to use less energy to excrete this extra liquid and they also eat more dry feed. Total energy intake is therefore higher so performance is better.
• Feeding calves Once-a-day allows farmers to keep calves in small groups and there is no need to share teats.
• These two factors alone reduce disease spread and illness significantly.
• The day is more flexible so calves get more attention allowing sick animals to be treated and isolated faster.
• Calves must be fed twice a day for the first 28 days.
