Organic Approved.  Check with your certifier to be sure.

Our strongest product, featuring a concentrated blend of Vitamins, Chelated Minerals and Electrolytes essential for the immune system to function effectively during times of metabolic stress.  

Let's focus on one of the most obvious aspects of dairy cow performance that are often undervalued.  Many people face problems with metritis, mastitis and poor breeding results for months after calving.  Theres no doubt that period of time is stressful on the body and the animal is most vulnerable to a number of bacterial and metabolic threats.   But many of these problems can be avoided in the first place by providing the animal with a better nutritional foundation during the dry period.  By providing the right nutrients, she will shed fetal membranes and fight off bacterial threats more efficiently and pass those nutrients onto the calf in gestation and through higher quality colostrum.  So now you have an animal better prepared to deal with the stress and begin lactation in a healthy state.  She will be able to produce more milk early on, her uterus will be much more healthy and fertility will be at optimum efficiency and her calf is healthier.  Why start from behind when you can accomplish so much with so little?  

Not only that, calves that receive the proper immune supporting nutrients in gestation and after birth will be stronger and able to fight off the threat of foreign pathogens that typically result in high mortality rates.  Scours accounts for half of all pre-weaned calf deaths.  1/3 of all deaths in the first 3 weeks are blamed on poor colostrum quality.  Why not supplement the dam and the calf during gestation, benefit them both and have a more successful outcome after calving for everyone?

The math is simple... stopping the problem before it starts makes sense 100% of the time.

Common Vitamix Feed Regimens

Vitamix supplies nutrients that the body relies on in abundance during times of stress.  These are our best recommendations to supply the nutrients necessary for the body to launch its own immune response without the use of harmful drugs.

 

CALVES

General Recommendation for the first 4 weeks (at least)
Support Calf Development & Reduce mortality rates significantly

  • 1/2 tablespoon (5g) of Vitamix twice daily in milk or milk replacer 
    *Give 4 times daily rate if high mortality is historically an issue.

Runny Nose, Cough, Respiratory Infection, or other general signs of illness

  • 1/2 tablespoon (5g) of Vitamix 4x daily in milk or milk replacer divided throughout the day

Reduce weak calf syndrome, Scours, Pneumonia or other serious contagious infections

  • 1/2 tablespoon (5g) of Vitamix 6-8 times daily by feeding tube or capsules, given every 1.5-2.5 hours

 

FRESH COWS

Support Recovery after Calving – Reduce Issues such as Retained Placenta & Metritis

50% of coliform mastitis that occurs the first 100 days in milk develops during the dry period & up to 90% of fresh cows will have bacterial contamination from fluids/tissues retained at calving.  Use routinely for close-up/fresh cows.   

  • 1 scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix daily for Dry Cows.  Increase to 2-3 times daily for close-up cows & generally continue for 7-10 days after calving.    Administer via TMR, Drenching, Capsules or Top Dress Feed.  Continue with only Formula M or Formula X after cows have recovered from calving.  

  • Routine use in close up & fresh cows may reduce instance of metritis & mastitis outbreaks during Lactation.  Passive immunity and more nutrient rich colostrum may also significantly benefit calves at birth.


OFF FEED/SICK COWS

Runny Nose, Cough, Respiratory Infections

  • 1 Scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 3-4x daily top dressed on feed or by drenching/capsules for usually 7 days +/-

Completely Off Feed

  • 1 Scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 4-6x daily by drenching or capsules if necessary. The cow should be up and back on feed within hours.  Continue 1 scoop of Vitamix 2-3x daily for 2-3 days after recovery. 

 

CONJUNCTIVITIS IN COWS AND CALVES

  • 1 gallon (6 lbs) Vitamix combined with 1/2 gallon Kelp (2 lbs)and 100 lbs free choice mineral salt

*There is no milk hold with Vitamix, as it is antibiotic and drug free.  Continue to sell the milk while giving Vitamix to sick cows and optimize your profit.

WE TRY TO AVOID ANTIBIOTIC USE, HOWEVER, IF YOU MUST GIVE AN ANTIBIOTIC IN A BIND...
*Give 1 scoop of Vitamix 2-3 x daily for 7-10 days following any heavy course of antibiotic or chemical wormer treatment, to immediately restore white blood cell production and intestinal flora as the natural immune response will be suppressed after heavy drug use, leaving the animal vulnerable to reinfection.
