The new-born calf

The new-born calf, protected during the gestation by its mother, does not have antibody at birth, thus it becomes vulnerable to infections.

The colostro-replacer ensures a passive immunity thanks to maternal antibodies up to the activation of its own immunity.

For piglet, the supplementation in bovine colostrum helps improving the digestion and the intestinal absorption of nutriments in case of early weaning : a period which means stress and metabolic upsets for the young animal.
