If the cow cannot replenish these reserves quickly enough, the blood calcium level can drop too low, resulting in visible milk fever symptoms such as reduced appetite and activity, cold ears and poorly functioning skeletal and organ muscles. In a larger group (40-50%), however, no symptoms are immediately visible, but the low calcium level can still have consequences later in lactation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Direct Calcium Bolus is an easy-to-administer gelatine capsule that dissolves quickly in the rumen, so that its contents of calcium formate and calcium acetate are also released quickly. Thanks to the good availability of both forms of calcium, the calcium quickly becomes available to the cow. This ensures a gradual rise in the calcium level, which is maintained over a longer period.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe perfect choice for every dairy farmer to supplement calcium in dairy cows, for an optimal start to lactation!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFeeding advice\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e1 bolus 12-24 hours before calving.\u003cbr\u003e1 bolus immediately after calving.\u003cbr\u003e1 bolus 10-12 hours after calving.\u003cbr\u003e1 bolus 24 hours after calving.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eSupportive after milk fever therapy\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e1 bolus 2 hours after an intravenous calcium treatment.\u003cbr\u003e1 bolus 12 hours after an intravenous calcium treatment.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAdminister orally using a suitable applicator.\u003cbr\u003eThe bolus can be administered using the white rings in the bolus applicator (36 mm).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGood to know:\u003c\/strong\u003e This Direct Calcium Bolus is the successor to the Excellent Calcium Bolus Gold (CALC05018 and CALC05019).\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Direct Bolus","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58965360968015,"sku":"DIRE013-HAC","price":90.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0870\/4186\/8111\/files\/DIRE013.png?v=1790770894","url":"https:\/\/www.fidello.us\/products\/direct-calcium-12-x-94-g","provider":"Fidello","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
