HERD HEALTH
PRE CALVING

A block designed for short-term use, starting two weeks before calving. Olsson’s Herd Health Pre-Calving is formulated to support the cow by providing energy and key minerals, including magnesium. This block is intended to complement Herd Health 365, helping to optimise mineral utilisation. Adequate energy and mineral intake during this period can support both cow and calf health.

Available in 15kg blocks.

Direction:
To be fed out in the weeks leading up to calving on an adlib basis. Replace when consumed.
Safe for newborn calves.

Intake:
Approximate intake: 100g/head/day

Place one HERD HEALTH PRE-CALVING block per 10–20 animals in accessible areas away from water troughs. Allow cattle, sheep, or horses free access to consume at their own rate — the block's hardness naturally regulates intake. Monitor consumption regularly and replace blocks as they wear down. Ensure adequate feed and water are available alongside the lick block. Tips: Position blocks in high-traffic areas where all animals can reach them easily, rotating placement if needed to encourage herd access. Pre-calving animals may have higher nutrient demands; combine this block with quality pasture or hay for best results. Keep records of block consumption to identify potential dietary gaps or mineral deficiencies in your herd.
