Colostrum provides essential energy for temperature regulation, fosters faster growth rates, and enhances future performance.<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">2. How much colostrum should a lamb consume?<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>For optimal results, colostrum should be administered as swiftly as possible, ideally within the first four hours of the lamb&#8217;s birth. Both timing and quantity are critical. A lamb with an average birth weight of 3.5 kilograms should consume at least 700ml of colostrum within the initial 18 hours of life.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>3. What does high quality, full of nutrients mean?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>In terms of antibodies (IgGs) to support immunity build-up, it means colostrum with at least 50 grams IgG per litre (Brix value of at least 22).<\/li>\n<li>In addition, colostrum naturally contains colostrum fat, which is the main source of energy for the newborn lamb. Newborn lambs cannot yet regulate their own temperature properly and therefore rely heavily on this fat from colostrum for energy, which contains specific fats that the lamb can convert into heat. Presence of this colostrum fat is therefore essential for the lamb.<\/li>\n<li>Finally, colostrum fat contains the fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E and K and other important nutrients are also found in colostrum, such as lactoferrin, a protein that stimulates intestinal development and resistance.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4><span style=\"font-size: 14pt;\">Colstart Plus Agromasters<\/span><\/h4>\n<p>A stabilized, spray-dried colostrum powder based on 100% natural bovine colostrum with all the original components: not defatted and therefore full of energy! Next to that, it contains extra added vitamins and trace elements. The colostrum is made free of germs by heating. Colstart Plus dissolves perfectly and is super palatable, which promotes intake. In short, Colstart Plus for the best possible start for every lamb.<\/p>\n<h3>Benifits of Colstart Plus<\/h3>\n<p>Plus compared to other products that are not based on complete colostrum:<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<th><\/th>\n<th><center>Partial<br \/>\ncolostrum products<\/center><\/th>\n<th><center>Colstart Plus<\/center><\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Based on complete colostrum<\/td>\n<td><center>\u274c<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Contains antibodies (IgGs)<\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Contains colostrum fat and stimulates thermoregulation<\/td>\n<td><center>\u274c<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Contains lactoferrin and stimulates gut development<\/td>\n<td><center>\u274c<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Contains all natural bioactive components for lamb development<\/td>\n<td><center>\u274c<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Does not contain whey and egg powder (IgY) as filler material<\/td>\n<td><center>\u274c<\/center><\/td>\n<td><center>\u2705<\/center><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Colstart Plus is the choice of professionals for a reason!<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/www.agromasters.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/unnamed-e1679572522933.png\"><img class=\"aligncenter wp-image-41243 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.agromasters.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/unnamed-700x482.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"700\" height=\"482\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<h3><\/h3>\n<h3>Feed instructions<\/h3>\n<p><em>Supplementary:<\/em>\u00a0Dissolve 25-50 grams (1-2 sachets) in 50-100 ml of lukewarm water (45\u00b0C).
