CALVES

The first step towards longevity

Optimal calf rearing begins in the cow’s transition period. The first weeks of the calf’s life are important for both the animal and the dairy farmer. Smooth calf rearing means less work for the farmer. Investing in calf rearing ensures optimal health and development during the most crucial stages of a calf’s life, paving the way for them to become successful dairy cows.

Digestive

A strong gut is essential for optimal growth, vitality, and nutrient absorption. By enhancing digestion and boosting immunity, calves develop into healthy, robust animals.

Respiratory

Ensuring calf health with a focus on a strong respiratory system is crucial for their growth, vitality, and overall health. By supporting clear breathing and efficient lung function, calves are better prepared to grow into strong, resilient animals.

Energy & Immunity Support

Focuses on minimising the energy dip and stress around weaning and supports the development of the rumen to maintain daily gain. This paves the way for calves to become healthy dairy cows in the future.

Skin & Hygiene

Supports your calves and their natural resistance for optimal skin care and a clean living environment.
