My kids love this stuff. Once they get a taste they want to eat it all the time. I use it to supplement their mom's and it has worked out well.

Excellent product but it was not clarified how many servings it would actually do.

Use warm water & a wisp like they recommend, and a lot of patience, but is reassuring to have have on hand for when needed!!!

After trying every available brand of colostrum replacer on the market -- six in total -- I found Saskatoon Colostrum Company's product far superior to the others. Sold in the US as Land O Lakes brand, this product boosted the survival of my bum lambs obtained from unvaccinated flocks from 87% to nearly 100%. Good to use for lambs from first-time lambers, large litters, those that get chilled down, or any others that look a bit weak. It's expensive but will more than pay for itself with more and healthier lambs.
