Iron deficiency and so much more
A Holstein-Friesian calf will grow about 600 grams during its 1st week, about 750 grams until the 3rd week, and about 900 grams per day until the 12th week. To ensure a healthy growth milk feed alone is insufficient. Adding vitamins and minerals to the diet is essential.
Iron is a crucial trace mineral in animals. It helps with blood formation (hematopoiesis) and various important reactions within and between cells. An iron deficiency can cause anemia and make the body more vulnerable to infections.
Selenium is a necessary antioxidant that prevents oxidative stress and supports the immune system. It boosts normal growth and helps prevent diseases like scours. Selenium often works together with vitamin E.
