Colostrum

  •  At birth, the camel calf must receive colostrum (first mothers milk) in the first 24 hours following birth.

  • This will provide protection against future infections, particularly if the colostrum is fed before 12 hours.

  • If the mothers colostrum is not available, use other camel colostrum or use cow or goat colostrum. If also not available, use a commercial colostrum replacer product.
     

General recommendations

  • Start feeding milk replacer once newborn calf has received enough colostrum.

  • Quantities offered should be about 10% of calf body weight and adjusted to calf's weight.

  • Any change in the feeding schedule should be done with judgement, according to growth and size.

  • Frequent feeding of small amounts will decrease chances of digestive upsets.

  • Weigh calves regularly to ensure that milk intake is adequate

  • Reconstituted Camel-Gro may be refrigerated up to 24 hours. Discard any unused portion after 24 hours.

  • The quantity of milk replacer fed to the calf will vary depending on health, size and availability of mother's milk.

  • Clean ALL feeding utensils and equipment after each feeding: rinse in lukewarm water, wash with a detergent in hot (80°C) water, rinse with clean water (ideally a weak bleach solution) and dry thoroughly with a ‘clean’ towel.

  • Consult your veterinarian for any signs of disease, fever, parasites,
