BioPAK® GOLD Proprietary Premix

  • Acidifiers – improves coagulation of milk and protein digestion.
  • Amino-V8™ – added essential amino acids provide an enhanced amino acid profile and effective quality protein to optimise frame development and daily gains to outperform powders with higher Crude Protein label values (data on file*).
  • Betaine – to aid hydration and metabolic function.
  • Bovatec® – medicated at optimum level to prevent and control clinical signs of coccidiosis. Reduces faecal shedding of protozoa (E. zuernii and E. bovis) and improves live-weight gains. 
  • CELMANAX™ – unique blend of biological active yeast cell wall components and fermentation metabolites that supports positive calf performance, gut health and immunity. Known to reduce faecal shedding of cryptosporidia (data on file).
  • High Dose Probiotic and Prebiotic – synergistic host-specific blend that aids digestion, binds gut pathogens, (Coliforms, Salmonella) and maintains healthy microbial levels for improved animal health and growth performance. 

Organic Trace Minerals & Protected Vitamins – ensures essential daily requirements are always met to optimise growth and metabolic functions. Meets or exceeds NRC calf requirements.

Indications

Medicated calf milk replacer designed to be fed as a complete milk replacer feed or a milk fortifier to livestock. Contains Bovatec for the control of coccidiosis and reduction of faecal shedding caused by Eimeria bovis and Eimeria Zuernii in growing cattle and for improved liveweight gains and feed conversion efficiency in growing cattle.

Precautions

Contains Bovatec (lasalocid APVMA No.: 54144) for the control of coccidiosis and reduction of faecal shedding caused by Eimeria bovis and Eimeria Zuernii in growing cattle and for improved liveweight gains and feed conversion efficiency in growing cattle. 

NOT TO BE FED TO DOGS, HORSES OR OTHER EQUINE SPECIES.

Accidental consumption of lasalocid or monensin medicated feed should be avoided. May prove fatal if fed to equids.

DO NOT FEED TO NEWBORN CALVES WITHIN THE FIRST 24 HOURS OF LIFE

Excessive consumption of ionophores or use within first 24 hours of life may result in ionophores toxicity in young calves. Concurrent use of milk additives that contain ionophores (lasalocid or monensin) should be avoided or carefully monitored.
