ALL STAR Instant Milk Replacer is a high quality, multi-purpose
milk replacer for dairy and beef calves, baby pigs, foals and kids and as a nursing
supplement for puppies and kittens.
ALL STAR is very palatable and easy to mix. The high quality ingredients
in ALL STAR provide superior digestibility to help meet the protein and energy needs
for strong animal development.
ALL STAR Instant Milk Replacer contains 20% protein and 20% fat for rapid
animal growth with balanced levels of essential minerals and vitamins such as A,
D and E for building strong sturdy frames.
ALL STAR can also be used as a dry feed supplement to encourage intake during
weaning.
ALL STAR Instant Milk Replacer provides a guaranteed level of direct-fed
microbials. These lactic acid and enzyme-producing bacteria support the growth of
beneficial bacteria in the small intestine and promote a healthy digestive tract.
Individual animals vary in their nutritional needs and amounts of milk replacer
should be adjusted to those needs. Always use good judgement and caution. Baby animals
should receive at least one feeding of colostrum milk. For each species, follow
the instructions carefully.

|
CALVES - Feed

6 to 12 hours of age and continue feeding colostrum for the first three days. No
whole milk is required after the colostrum feeding period when calf milk replacer
is used. Mix milk replacer powder at the rate of 8 oz of dry powder (2 cups) per
2 qts of warm water (100 degrees to 120 degrees F). Feed approximately 2 qts of
reconstituted milk replacer TWICE-A-DAY. Calves will vary in feed requirements depending
on size and age. When feeding to larger numbers of calves, mix l lb of dry powder
(by weight) to 1 gallon of warm water.
BABY PIGS -
Mix 4 oz of dry powder (1 cup) with 1 qt of warm water and feed in shallow feeder.
Keep fresh milk in front of baby pigs at all times. Sprinkle dry powder on starter
feeds to assist in weaning.
FOALS - Mix
6 oz of dry powder (1 and 1/2 cups) with 1 qt of warm water and feed 4 times per
day for the first week of life. From week 2 through 4, mix 8 oz of powder (2 cups)
with 1 and 1/2 qts of water and feed 3 times per day. Mix 12 oz of dry powder (3
cups) with 3 qts of water and feed two times per day for the next two weeks. Add
1/4 lb of 16% protein grain ration per day at 2 weeks of age and increase to appetite.
Sprinkle 1 cup of dry powder on top of ration twice daily..
|
KIDS - Feed
heat-treated colostrum during the first day of life. (Heat to 135 degrees F and
hold at this temperature for 1 hour.) Mix 4 oz of dry powder (1 cup) in 1 and 1/2
pints of 110 degress -120 degrees F water, then cool to 90-100 degrees F for hand
feeding. Feed 3 to 4 times a day for the first 5 days, then feed just twice a day
until weaned. Feed as much as they will drink, starting with 1 pint per feeding
and increasing to 1 and 1/2 pints when feeding only twice a day. Provide hay and
a grain mix in self-feeders when kids are 1 week old.
PUPPIES & KITTENS
- Mix 2 oz of dry powder (1/2 cup) into 2 cups of water. Reconstituted milk replacer
should be fed at the daily rate of 2 tablespoons per 1/4 lb of body weight and divided
into equal portions for each feeding. Needs will vary depending on individual size,
but small puppies and kittens should be fed every 2 to 3 hours for the first 2 weeks.
Feed at room temperature. To determine correct feeding, weigh 3 times a week. FOR
ADULTS: When used as a food supplement during convalescence, to combat stress in
show dogs and show cats, or in old age: feed as liquid or sprinkle dry over feed
at the rate of 1 tablespoon per 5 lbs of body weight in dogs or 1 teaspoon per 5
