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)
- 1/2 tablespoon (5g) of Vitamix 2x daily in milk or milk replacer
*Double the feed 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
Scours, Pneumonia or other serious contagious infections
- 1/2 teaspoon (5g) of Vitamix 6-8 times daily by feeding tube or capsules, given every 1.5-2.5 hours
*For weanlings, give 1/2 tablespoon Formula 7 (5g) 2x daily until breeding age to support continual development, at which point we suggest switching to Formula M until breeding age.
FRESH COWS
Support Recovery after Calving – Reduce Issues such as Retained Placenta
- 1 scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 2x daily for 7-10 days leading up to parturition, generally continue for 7-10 days after. Once Somatic Cell Count stabilizes, continue with only Formula M. If SCC Jumps higher than 300,000, give 1 scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 4x daily divided evenly throughout the day for 7-10 days. Discontinue once SCC returns to desirable level.
OFF FEED/SICK COWS
Runny Nose, Cough, Respiratory Infections
- 1 Scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 3-4x daily top dressed on feed 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.
Staph Aureus and other Staph Strains
- 1 Scoop (2 oz) of Vitamix 8-12x daily for cows positive with various Staph strains. May take 4+ weeks
*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.
