The colostrum supply is the central element and the absolutely crucial basic building block for the health of the newborn calf. The intake of colostrum from the dam provides the calf with passive immunity. In plain language, this means that the calf can absorb immunity through its mother's milk.

The basic rule for colostrum supply is: as much as possible, as quickly as possible and of the best possible quality.
