Pulmosure a preventative against respiritory issues

Do your calves have pneumonia? Pulmosure can help!

A calf’s respiratory system is not fully mature until the animal is 2 years old, it’s airways are narrow and so can easily become blocked.

There are currently lots of pneumonia cases on farm – one of the most common causes of poor performance and death in calves and young cattle.

Stresses can result in lower immunity and increase the risk of respiratory issues, at this time of year changes in weather, differences in day and nighttime temperatures, can all have a negative effect on a calf’s respiratory system.

Mitigate stressful systems, by considering spreading stressful procedures such as weaning, disbudding, group changes and be mindful of those unseen stressful pressures such as weather.

 What to do if breathing gets difficult?

Act at the first cough - A prevention programme can only do so much, so it is important to recognise early signs of possible respiratory problems like coughing or a runny nose and act fast.

Farm-O-San Pulmosure, a complementary respiratory health product that is formulated to help enhance an animals breathing. Increasing mucus production and boosting the clearance of inhaled unwanted particles in the calf’s respiratory system.

 It has a natural source of vitamin E and organic selenium yeast, which is there to help aid and support the immune function of the calf, leading to higher proportion absorbed by the animal. This product is available in many different forms such as: top dressing on feed, soluble inclusion in milk powder and molassed mineral buckets.
