The first thing a calf drinks

Before a calf drinks milk it drinks something else. For the first day or two the mother produces colostrum, thicker and yellower than milk, and it is the first thing that goes into a body that has to be up and walking within the hour.

It has been given to human children for as long as people have kept cattle. It is richer in protein than ordinary milk and full of the things a mother passes on in those first hours and does not pass on afterwards.

We put bovine colostrum into Mini Savage and only into Mini Savage. The adult blend does not need it. A child is still building the body they will live in, and we wanted the kids' formula to start where nature starts.
