Q » Why do calves need colostrum immediately?
30 Oct, 2025
A » Colostrum is crucial for newborn calves as it provides essential antibodies, nutrients, and energy needed for their survival and growth. The first milk boosts the calf’s immune system, offering protection against diseases during the early days of life. Administering colostrum within the first few hours after birth is vital, as the calf's ability to absorb these antibodies diminishes rapidly within the first 24 hours.
