WESTON ANIMAL NUTRITION FACTS
Whether you are rearing heifer calves for entry into the dairy herd, or bull calves for feedlot entry, a successful rearing program will give you the rapid growth and rumen development you need. A well grown, healthy animal at weaning is the launching pad for big replacement heifers, or rapidly grown beef animals.
Larger framed heifers mean more milk - bigger beef calves mean an early entry to the feedlot. Both Result in Big Returns! Ultra-Grow is the cornerstone of your successful rearing program.
The Milk Replacer with a difference
Why is Ultra-Grow the Ultimate?
- 20% Fat! Studies have shown that calves need 20% fat for optimum growth. Many Milk Replacers contain only 15-16% fat. Ultra Grow provides the recommended fat level best suited to your calves.
- Milk Based! Studies also show calves digest milk derived fats and proteins more efficiently than animal or vegetable derived fats as used in some alternative milk replacers.
- Comprehensive Vitamin and Mineral Premix! No further expensive additives are required.
- Ultra-Grow Contains Acidifiers! These naturally occurring, mild organic acids help manipulate gut acidity to prevent proliferation of scour causing bacteria such as Ecoli.
- Ultra-Grow Now Contains "Protexin" The
most advanced probiotic in the world today! "Protexin"
contains seven naturally occurring beneficial strains
of bacteria and two yeasts. Consequently, in addition
to establishing an initial healthy population of gut
microflora, Ultra-Grow with Protexin will continue to
enhance the population of beneficial organisms in the
gut thus:
- Enhancing syntheses and absorption of vitamins and minerals.
- Improving weight gain and feed conversion.
- Preventing proliferation of pathogens eg. E.Coli or Salmonella.
- Ultra-Grow Mixes Easily in cold or warm water.
Extremely hot water is not
required making feeding time more manageable.
NOTE: Cool, clean water must always be available to calves. It is suggested that ad lib straw also be available from day one.
