“Every day counts when it comes to getting calves off to a good start and introducing calves to fibre in the initial days is part of getting this early formula right,” Fiber Fresh national sales manager Bob Bell says.

“Introducing a high nutritional fibre in calves’ diets within their first few weeks encourages faster and healthier rumen and digestive development, allowing calves to transition and thrive on grass much faster.

“It also leads to long term health benefits and production,” he says.

FiberStart enhances full stomach development in the calf.

It promotes advanced rumen and papillae growth while improving enzyme activity and the establishment of correct microflora (bacteria) populations.

“By feeding FiberStart the calf is following a natural path of development with an easily digested fibre.

“It provides the all-important scratch factor and essential nutrition for sustained growth.

“These are all necessary elements required by a young calf if it is to grow and thrive on pasture.”

Bell says almost any cereal-based concentrate calf feed can be fed alongside FiberStart.

Fiber Fresh feeds are research-based and are a culmination of years of trials to develop the advanced processes that result in superior fibres.
