Expert tips for optimal calf feeding - healthy growth right from the start
Feeding is an important component in building a functioning immune system.
Unlike humans, calves do not yet have an immune system at the time of birth. Immediately after birth, they therefore need colostrum for a
passive immune defence
. Full observation and ensuring sufficient colostrum intake is only possible when feeding by hand.
We offer you products for quality control,
colostrum management
and

drinking.
Colostrum
The further feeding of the animals depends on the rearing and feeding system of the respective farm.
As a general rule, a drinking phase follows the second feeding. During the feeding phase, the abomasum is a very important organ, as it is responsible for digesting the milk until the other stomachs are formed.
Calf trough
Optimisation of calf health through adapted feeding and supplementary feed
In addition to optimised feeding with milk or milk replacer,
supplementary feed
is an option for the best possible health of the calves. The prevention of diarrhoea is particularly important in calf rearing.

National differences in the regulations on the supply of water and roughage
The
national regulations
regarding the timing of offering water and roughage vary from country to country. It is advisable to offer the calves water and roughage at their free disposal after a short period of time in addition to the drinking trough with milk or milk replacer.
