Feed Recommendation:
Use with Moozlee system to avoid growth check, or as the sole dry feed in any rearing system.

Calves should be fed whole milk or milk replacer up to 5-6 litres per day until weaning. NRM GrowUp should be introduced gradually at four weeks and fed for at least 3-4 weeks after weaning. Ensure the calves have access to clean water and hay right throughout. NRM GrowUp should be offered fresh each day - if fed in troughs clean out frequently. GrowUp can be fed to dairy replacements up to 20 weeks of age to ensure good heifer liveweights at mating.
