A recent study by Penn State showed that of 12,000 calves started,
more than 18% died in their first 12 months. Beacon’s Complete Calf
Feeding Program is designed to help you minimize such losses by
increasing calf livability.
Be-Co-Nurse milk replacer is one cornerstone of this program. It
provides a high level of digestible energy in the form of easily digested
lactose (milk sugar) and a high content (20%) of stabilized animal fat.
Beacon Golden Calf Starter is the second foundation stone of the
program. It is fortified with vitamins A and D, plus Aureomycin. Partially
pelleted, Beacon Golden Calf Starter is a highly palatable grain ration
that calves love.
Beacon Calf Power and Beacon Scour Stop-R offer a scour prevention
and control program that is highly effective. Calf Power is recommended
for calves under undue stress. Scour Stop-R provides a “Feed and Treat”
method of combating scours when they actually occur.
Used in your calf rearing program, these Beacon products can help
increase your calf livabilitf. Why not call your Beacon Dealer or Beacon
Advisor today?
