Calves reared on Fiber Gain® can be grass ready at seven weeks. Due to better developed rumens, they will not experience a weaning check, and will be ready to graze like mini-cows on pasture from day one.
FiberGain® is a high energy fibre/meal combination of fresh cut lucerne and freshly kibbled barley designed to give every calf the best possible start to become healthier and more productive cows.
The high nutritional fibre in FiberGain® encourages full stomach development and promotes rumen growth whilst at the same time improving enzyme activity and establishing correct gut microflora (bacteria) populations. The fibre in FiberGain® is highly digestible containing superior protein for better health and general calf advancement.
FiberGain® by Fiber Fresh is available from rural suppliers nationwide.
- FiberGain is natural and antibiotic free. 100% locally grown using sustainable farming practices. Our Lucerne is harvested fresh from our fields in the Central Plateau with Barley sourced nearby.
The unique fermentation process makes FiberGain extremely digestible and provides high energy for sustained growth.
Because calves find FiberGain® highly palatable, it is easy and convenient to use, cost effective, and will condition calves for optimal health and performance.
