Product Information
Full details
The Nettex Agri Ultra Concentrate Colostrum is designed for sheep farmers and livestock handlers who need a reliable, high-quality substitute for weak or small lambs when maternal colostrum is insufficient or unavailable. It provides essential energy and immune support by mimicking natural ewe colostrum, though it should be prioritized only as a supplementary or replacement feed when natural colostrum access is compromised.

FAQs
Is this product suitable for other animals?
This product is specifically formulated for lambs. Consult a veterinarian for guidance on using it for other species.
Can I store the mixed solution for later?
No, the solution should be prepared fresh for every feed to ensure hygiene and nutritional integrity.
Where is the colostrum sourced from?
The colostrum is sourced exclusively from TB and EBL-free UK bovine herds.
Why is it important to use this in the first 24 hours?
Lambs have a limited window to absorb essential antibodies, making early colostrum intake vital for long-term health.
Does it contain real egg and wheat protein?
Yes, it contains hydrolysed wheat protein and egg protein to support muscle development and immune function.
Troubleshooting
Powder not dissolving completely
Ensure the water is at the recommended warm temperature and stir vigorously or shake the bottle thoroughly until no clumps remain.
Lamb refuses to drink
Check that the solution is at the correct temperature; if the lamb is too cold, warm the lamb gently before attempting to feed again.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare, mix the measured amount of Nettex Ultra Concentrate with clean, warm water according to the provided ratio on the packaging. Use a sterile feeding bottle or stomach tube depending on the lamb's ability to swallow. Ensure the product is stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain the potency of the vitamins and minerals. Once mixed, the solution should be fed immediately and any remaining mixture should be discarded to prevent bacterial growth.
