Description
SCCL colostrum has been proven safe and effective for supplying high levels of protein, colostral fat, lactose, plus the nutrients, and growth factors required by newborn lambs and kids.
A newborn’s start is dependent on proper colostrum management. If maternal colostrum is not available or if a “top-up” is required, use SCCL’s Colostrum Lamb & Kid® as a whole fat colostrum replacer or supplement.
Composition:
High Protein Content (46%)
An excellent source of essential colostral protein required by newborns during the first critical hours of life.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>lass=”yoast-text-mark” />>High Fat Content (24%)
Fat source is pure colostral fat; the fat most readily metabolized by newborns to maintain body temperature. Other fats have not been shown to provide the same benefits.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Free From Pathogens
Can be used to replace or supplement maternal colostrum when ewes or does are infected with OPP, CAE, Johne’s or other disease agents that can be transferred through infected colostrum.
Whole Bovine Colostrum
SCCL’s Colostrum Lamb & Kid® is made only from whole bovine colostrum. It supplies high levels of protein, colostral fat, lactose, nutrients, and growth factors required by newborn lambs and kids.
Feeding recommendations:
All lambs and kids should get their first colostrum feed within 2 hours of birth. Followed by two additional feeds, ideally within the first 18 hours of life.
Each feed should be based on body weight. Calculate 15% of bodyweight as colostrum quantity to feed within the first 18 hours.
Temperature of mixing water should be 43-49C. When fed, colostrum should be close to the lambs/kids body temperature.
For the average 4kg lamb:
1st feeding- mix 40g of powder with 150ml of water and feed within the first 2 hours of life.
2nd feeding- mix 40g of powder with 150ml of water and feed within the first 10 hours of life.
3rd feeding- mix 40g of powder with 150ml of water and feed within the first 18 hours of life.
