PREMIER DEFENDER with Bio-Cox and Calf-Guard

PREMIER DEFENDER is an ENERGISED transition milk powder designed to be fed after colostrum in the first 7-10 days of a calf’s life before moving on to milk replacer. However, it can be used throughout the entire milk feeding period if required. It is based on 100% all milk protein with the highest quality low heat skim milk powder together with a health package designed to get the calf off to a good healthy start.

PREMIER DEFENDER has a higher oil to protein ratio more closely resembling that of cow’s milk. 

PREMIER DEFENDER contains high levels of Calf-Guard powder which is rich in specific polyclonal antibodies, probiotics and prebiotics. Polyclonal antibodies are designed to protect the gut lining from a range of harmful bacteria and virus. 

Probiotics/Prebiotics including live yeast, provide beneficial bacteria but also stimulate their growth in order to maintain a healthy balance in the calf`s gut.

Premier Defender also contains high levels of mannan-oligosaccharides (derived from yeast cell walls) which have been shown to remove bad bacteria and toxins and in so doing enhance the immune response in the calf.

Omega “3” fatty acids help to improve immunity and have anti-inflammatory properties.

Biocox contains a blend of essential oils with its primary role to control growth of undesirable organisms linked to calf scour and also enhance the immune system.

Suitable for bucket feeding and most automatic feeders NOT requiring a free flowing powder.

PREMIER DEFENDER is 24% Oil and 22% Protein
