NurseMate® Colostrum Supplement Jar
This supplement's sole ingredient for lamb, kids and calves is dried bovine colostrum. Includes 12 grams of IgG (maternal antibodies) to pass on immunities.
Colostrum is essential for newborn livestock that must consume at least 5%-10% of their weight within several hours of being born.
Benefits
- Supplemens lambs, kids and calves that do not have adequate access to quality colostrum. Whether they were orphaned, multiple birth (not enough colostrum), or born to young dams (younger females often produce less colostrum than more mature females).
- Nursemate® is pasteurized and specially processed to preserve the nutrients that are so vital to newborn animals.
- Rich in energy, protein, vitamins and minerals.
- Contains maternal antibodies that help protect the newborn from disease pathogens during the early part of its life.
- Increases the amount of IgG fed when no other source of colostrum is available.
- Colostrum is the first source of Vitamin E in lambs and kids.
- Boosts Vitamin A levels.

Very hard to mix. Stays clumpy and plugged all the nipples. Not one lamb liked it. I had several get diarrhea from it.
