Note: In periods when calves are stressed (eg. diease recovery, environmnetal) NRM recommends a higher rate of NRM Power Whey addition (150g/l in a twice a day or 700g/2.5L in a once a day feeding)
AGE VOLUME PER FEED (*125-150g/litre of water)

22 days to wean 3Litres twice per day
AGE VOLUME PER FEED (*125-150g/litre of water)

11 days to wean 600g with water to make up 2.5L feed once a day
As a guide the calf should receive at least 10% of its body weight daily eg a 40kg calf requires 4 litres (4x125g/L) of milk replacer per day. For fortified ‘Once a Day’ feeding systems NRM Power Plus CMR powder may be fed in a reduced volume of water (refer to table).
For best results feed NRM Moozlee+, Grow Up+ or Ready Rumen+ ad-lib from Day 5.
Mix 125-150g of NRM Power Whey CMR with water to make up 1 litre. Add the required amount of powder to half the volume of hot water (45°C-55°C) and mix vigorously for 1 minute. Then top up with water to the required volume so that the milk replacer is fed at 38°C-42°C.
1. Colostrum must be fed for the first 4 days, including at least 4 litres in the first 24 hours.
2. All feeding equipment must be clean. Disinfect with a suitable product eg Virkon S
3. Make changes to the volume or concentration gradually. Feeding recommendations are a guide only, adjust volume fed to the weight of the calf.
4. Allow calves access to clean water at all times
5. House calves for a minimum of 3 weeks.
6. NRM Power Whey CMR does not contain a coccidiostat.
Wean off milk at 65kg minimum weight, when consuming 1kg of NRM calf feed per day. Continue to provide NRM calf feed for 1 month after weaning from milk.
Calves with scours (diarrhoea) should be fed 8-10 litres of electrolyte. A separate extra feed of warm milk (eg 1 litre at 40°C) will enhance energy intake. If scours persist for more than 3 days consult your veterinarian.
