[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1611656, member: 27490"] If you are replacing natural colostrum, then use the best. Having said that, if you give two feedings of a high quality colostrum in the first 24 hours or so, I would not continue feeding colostrum at that expense. BTW: You can introduce pathogens into your beef herd by using whole dairy colostrum. Colostrum not only contains antibodies but it can also harbor pathogens. It can also be mishandled. I prefer packaged colostrum. Fortunately, I have not needed colostrum for about 3 years. [/QUOTE]
