New Concepts in Colostrum Feeding for Dairy Calves

Dairy producers should consider feeding a smaller volume of colostrum to newborn calves. Delivering the correct mass of immunoglobulin in a smaller volume ensures the successful transfer of passive immunity (TPI) is preferable to current colostrum feeding guidelines. Feeding too large a volume of colostrum can cause serious complications that affect the health and well-being of newborn calves. Dr. Donald C.
