Re:
And that is as it should be------- in a closed heard situation.Use to raise over 400 dairy calves a year on nothing but mama's milk right out of the pipeline still warm along with a high quality calf starter and would lose about 3=4 a year. No meds. at all unless you had to treat an individual calf.

Re:
You can only get what is available in your area. I have never seen a milk replacer medicated with Bovatec.you need to spend another ten=fifteen bucks a bag and get a good milk replacer medicated only with Bovatec. The calves will do much better.
That is why I use Corid.
