Characteristics and intended use
Nutrition of foals during the weaning phase, nutrition of orphan foals or foals of poor milkers, prevention of deficiencies of dietary imbalances responsible for DOD.
Primolatte is a complementary feed suitable for weaning foals in lactation.
Thanks to the presence of lysine at 1.9%, it can be considered a feed with high biological value, palatable and digestible.
The product is recommended for weaning foals or in any case after the fourth week of life.
Primolatte is also useful for the transition of the foal to solid foods.
Furthermore, the feed is useful in cases of mineral and vitamin deficiencies which represent the main causes of developmental orthopaedic diseases and thus helps horses become robust with sound joints.
It stands out for its very high biological value (Lysine 1.9%) and for its complete digestibility in sucklings.
These characteristics make it the ideal food for feeding foals from the first month of life.
Animals fed with this complementary feed are protected from mineral and vitamin deficiencies responsible for the main developmental orthopaedic diseases (DOD).
They continue to develop regularly during and after weaning since they do not undergo stressful feed changes or nutritional deficiencies.
Regular development prevents compensatory growth responsible for DOD.
It produces robust, well-formed animals with sound joints.
MANAGEMENT OF THE ORPHAN FOAL
During the first three weeks of life, feed the foal exclusively with NANUT FOAL, milk reconstituted in liquid form.
From the fourth week, dissolve the pellets in the reconstituted milk: 50 g per litre of milk.
From the fifth week, continue liquid feeding, leaving available according to the quantities indicated in the table below.
The addition of 10% NANUT FOAL powder to the pellets facilitates the transition to solid feeding.
Format 20 Kg.
