Happy New Year! 🎉 I think we can all agree, 20

Happy New Year! 🎉

I think we can all agree, 2020 wasn't great... it wasn't all bad, but we definitely all faced some challenges. So, here's to hoping for a better 2021!

Here at Grober Nutrition we are excited for another year of serving our customers. We want to remind all of you that we have an exceptional team of quality assurance specialists, nutritionists and Young Animal Specialists, here to help you in raising healthy young animals for the future of your farm. We're #MoreThanMilkReplacer.

Are you lambing now or later in the winter? ❄️

As the temperature outside starts to drop, we need to remember that lambs are very susceptible to hypothermia. They are born with limited fat reserves, so there are a few steps you should take when lambs are born:
1. Ensure they receive adequate colostrum and milk
2. Make sure they are dried rapidly after birth
3. Have lots of bedding and consider the use of heat lamps

Have questions? Contact one of our Young Animal Specialists.

DYK? 🐷

Piglets who consume milk replacer, consume more creep feed in the farrowing room, regardless of when milk replacer is supplemented?

Based on results from our second on-farm piglet research trial, piglets who were given supplemental milk replacer, regardless of when milk replacer was introduced, consumed more creep feed in the farrowing room than their control counterparts!

Want to start supplementing your piglets with milk replacer? Contact our swine specialist Amber, today!

Doesn’t this cold snowy weather just make you want to stay in bed wrapped in all of your cozy blankets? 🥶

Well I bet your animals do too! Except instead of blankets, they need lots of clean, dry bedding. Make sure you check your bedding regularly this winter to ensure it stays dry and your animals stay warm and cozy! 🌨

When and where should you use piglet milk replacer

When and where should you use piglet milk replacer on the farm? 🐷

Grober PigletGro milk replacer can be used in a few ways:
1. As a supplement to sows milk to increase overall nutrition of the litter
2. To drench small and struggling piglets as a starting point to nursing
3. As a full replacement to any piglets pulled from a sow and not cross fostered
4. To mix with creep feed to create a porridge for easier transition from sow to solid feed, and to top dress creep feed to help with intake of solid feed.

For more information, visit our website or reach out to our swine specialist, Amber.

Are you getting ready for winter lambing? Make sure you're stocked up on milk replacer and colostrum! 🐑🍼

Grober LambGro milk replacer is a great choice for replacement feeding of multiple birth lambs or orphaned lambs. It's also designed for use in automated feeders!

Be sure to also keep a bag or two of LambGro KidGro colostrum on hand for supplementing or replacing ewe colostrum when quality or quantity is inadequate.

Have more questions or concerns about raising lambs? Reach out to one of our Young Animal Specialists who would be happy to discuss nutrition, housing and care of your lambs.
