Premier Select Kid Formula

Premier Select Kid Formula is a true colostrum supplement formulated specifically for goats. It contains natural maternal bovine colostrum with essential vitamins and minerals for newborn kids.

Colostrum: Why is it important?

When goats are born their immune systems are not fully developed. Kids rely on immunity being passed to them through their mother and the first milk she produces. This first milk is called colostrum and it contains many of the immune and growth factors necessary for life. The health and survival of newborn kids is greatly dependent on the ingestion of colostrum after birth.

The ability of the newborn kid to absorb the antibodies in colostrum is at its peak within the first few hours of life and decreases over time.  Antibodies are absorbed through the gastrointestinal walls and serve to jumpstart the newborn’s immune system. It is essential to feed colostrum shortly after parturition (birth), before the gut closes off and passive transfer is no longer possible.

It is crucial for a goat to consume adequate amounts of colostrum, an equivalent to 1 percent of its body weight, during the first 24 hours of life.

Colostrum: Why specie-specific formulas?

Bovine colostrum is an ideal substitution or supplementation for maternal colostrum. While bovine colostrum may provide a nutritional base for a variety of species, there are still specie-specific nutritional requirements.

In cooperation with breeders, distributors, and research specialists, La Belle has introduced a line of scientifically formulated products based on bovine colostrum but nutritionally tailored for other mammals, including goats.  Starting with a bovine colostrum base, vitamins, minerals, and goat-compatible probiotics are added. 

Formula should be fed for the first few days after birth to give kids an extra nutritional and immunity boost. Each scoop of our Premier Select Kid formula delivers immune support, helps with digestion, improves nutritional intake and supports overall health and well-being.
