Colostrum
-
At birth, the calf must receive colostrum (first mother’s 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 mother’s colostrum is not available, use cow colostrum.
-
If also not
available, use a commercial colostrum replacer product.
-
Provide injectable Vitamin E to the calf according to veterinary
prescription.
General recommendations
-
Start feeding milk replacer once newborn has received colostrum.
-
Quantities offered should be adjusted to weight, increasing gradually
from birth to weaning.
-
Any change in the feeding schedule should be done with judgement,
according to growth, size and stool consistency.
-
Frequent feeding of small amounts will decrease chances of digestive
upsets.
-
Weigh calves regularly to ensure that milk intake is adequate
-
Reconstituted Elephant-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, …
