Nurse Chow® 100™
Nurse Chow® 200™
More than 400,000 of today’s better cows
got a Nurse Chow start.
Over the years, these two Nurse Chows have shown they can be counted on
to produce healthy calves that develop into healthy cows. Each formula has
been developed to deliver the optimum combination of nutrition and
medication. Included in the nutrients is 22% protein and 12% fat. There are 10
essential minerals in Nurse Chow, plus at least 301. U. of Vitamin E, 5,0001. U.
Vitamin D, and 30,000 I.U. of Vitamin A per pound.
Nurse Chow® 100™ High Energy Formula
Nurse Chow® 200™ High Energy Formula
Extra energy to help boost weight gains
in those important early days.
Free-Choice Nurse Chow®
A totally different milk replacer
and a totally different way to feed it.
For many dairy operations, a calf feeding program that isn’t tied to the clock
offers big advantages. Free-Choice Nurse Chow has been developed
specifically to meet this need. Once it has been mixed and placed in the calf pen,
you can forget about calf feeding chores for up to two full days. Of course, good
management of the calf operation is still needed to maintain healthy calves.
A free-choice milk replacer must maintain high palatability for an extended
time. It must stay in suspension to ensure that the last drop will be as nutritious
as the first. Free-Choice Nurse Chow satisfies these requirements and more.
Purina has never made a milk replacer with so many
features and benefits.

In addition, Nurse Chow 100 and Nurse Chow 200 contain the dual antibiotic
protection of oxytctracycline and neomycin. These antibiotics have proven
efficacy against scours and certain other common diseases. When used as
directed, Nurse Chow provides 50 milligrams of oxytctracycline and 105
milligrams of neomycin per gallon, the levels generally recommended for
maintaining good calf health.
Nurse Chow 100 derives its protein from an all-milk base. It has less fiber
than many competitive milk replacers, a feature which some users find
desirable.
Nurse Chow 200 is the logical alternative for those who look for maximum
value. This milk replacer gets its protein from a combination of milk and
vegetable (soy isolate) sources. No milk replacer delivers better value.
If you belivc in using a maximum energy milk replacer, these two new Nurse
Chows provide the added nutrition needed. Each utilizes the same protein
sources as its regular Nurse Chow counterpart, but fat has been increased to a
20% level. This additional energy can produce accelerated weight gains that
translate into ability to breed at an earlier age, and a better chance for sustained
good health once in the milking string.
The extra performance built into Nurse Chow 100 High Energy formula and
Nurse Chow 200 High Energy formula isn’t the best alternative for every dairy
farm. But for those situations where all-out growth and development is desired,
nothing with less capability will do.
Acidified. Free-Choice Nurse Chow has a low pH which helps prevent over
consumption at each nursing, and thus reduces the chance of bloating.
Acidification also keeps the formula fresh, improves protein assimilation, and
inhibits growth of pathogenic bacteria (such as E. coli) in the digestive tract —a
valuable aid in scours control.
High-performance nutrition. Frcc-Choice Nurse Chow has an all-milk
base; lactose is the sole carbohydrate. This emphasis on milk ingredients
provides natural nutrient sources and easy digestibility. The guaranteed
analysis includes 20% protein and 14% fat.
Like any new management tool, Free-Choice Nurse Chow should be
carefully considered by every dairy farm. Free choice isn’t always the best
choice. But for operations that want to replace twice-a-day feedings and
inflexible schedules with a less demanding routine, Free-Choice Nurse Chow
makes it possible.
Because free-choice feeding requires changes in the way calves are handled,
Purina Mills has developed a total management program which makes this
innovative concept easier to adopt. Your local Purina dealer or District Sales
Representative will be pleased to discuss ad lib feeding, and the sanitation and
other management practices required to make it work.
