Bovi-Bond urethane adhesive, from USA, is a proven system for attaching blocks to the healthy claw of lame cows’ hooves. Bovi-Bond does not need any special skill to mix and apply. The secret is in the double-barrel 210ml adhesive cartridge and the special dispensing gun. This system ensures that the two parts of the adhesive mixture are kept separate until they merge in the mixing tip. After treating the affected claw, the healthy claw is trimmed to leave a clean, flat and dry surface. Follow the instructions below for preparation of the cartridge for loading into the dispensing gun. Apply about 20ml (a 3mm-thick layer) to the clean hoof surface. Press the block lightly onto the adhesive, and hold still for 30 seconds. The block will wear off or break off naturally, by which time, if you repaired it correctly, the affected claw should have made a recovery. Bovi-Bond adhesive sets in approximately 30 seconds after application of the block. It can be load-bearing after 2 or 3 minutes (or slightly longer in cold weather). The pack set above contains the adhesive cartridge plus 1 pack of 3 mixing tips and 8 blocks. The dispensing gun must be purchased separately. After opening, the Bovi-Bond adhesive cartridge must be used within one year...

These calf covers are made from 70% wool and 30% Polyester. The wool retains body heat and protects from cold winds or rain while the Polyester gives strength to the cover.

Woolover "Ultra" covers feature an extra outer waterproof shell of Emphatex to keep your calves warm and dry even in the most extreme conditions.

Tracerite Copper Capsules for calves and adult cattle (10g) for prevention and treatment of copper deficiency in calves and adult cattle Composition Each capsule contains 8.5g of Copper (as copper oxide). Physical Information A soluble gelatine capsule (USP) containing 10g of sustained release copper oxide rods (copper needles) which contains 86% +/- 5% elemental copper for oral administration. Indications Tracerite Copper Capsules for Calves and Adult Cattle (10g) are indicated for the treatment and prevention of copper deficiency in cattle over 3 months of age. The Tracerite capsule is administered orally and dissolves in the rumen, releasing the copper oxide needles that lodge in the folds of the reticulum and abomasum. The copper oxide needles then slowly dissolve to release copper that is absorbed by the animal from the intestinal tract. The copper is stored in the liver and released gradually over time into the circulation. Features/Benefits Proven technology that is reliable and long lasting Effective copper supplementation for 12 months May be administered as required with Selenium pellets (bullets) and/or Cobalt pellets (bullets) Trials with supplemented beef calves over a three-month period demonstrated a 20 kg live weight gain over untreated animals In dairy cows over a 5.5-month period, treated animals gained an average of 27 kg more live weight than untreated animals. Dosage Administered orally Calves up to 200kg (less than 12 months of age) - 1 capsule administered orally per animal Adult cattle over 200kg - 2 capsules per animal  Repeat in 12 months Dose animals late winter or early spring unless copper supplementation is required immediately Dose pregnant animals early in pregnancy to allow protection of the new born against copper deficiency In Liver Fluke endemic areas, treat animals with a flukicide at least 3 weeks before using this copper supplement The capsule must be administered using an applicator or balling gun that delivers the capsule directly into the gullet.
