Product Information

Full details

The Bimeda Cosecure Bolus for lambs is an essential trace element supplement designed for livestock managers looking to optimize growth, fertility, and overall herd health in young ruminants. By providing a consistent release of copper, selenium, and cobalt, it improves nutrient utilization, supports a robust immune system, and helps prevent deficiencies that lead to common ailments like mastitis or stunted growth. While it offers a highly effective preventative solution for maintaining flock productivity, it is specifically calibrated for ruminating lambs over six weeks of age weighing under 25kg, requiring precise weight assessment before administration.

FAQs

Which specific elements does this bolus provide?

This bolus provides a controlled release of copper, selenium, and cobalt.

Can I use this for lambs that weigh 30kg?

No, this product is strictly for lambs weighing under 25kg. Using it on larger animals may result in incorrect dosage.

Why is it important to wait until six weeks of age?

The animal must be fully ruminating for the bolus to function correctly; younger lambs may not have developed the necessary rumen function.

How often should I administer the bolus?

The bolus is designed for a single application; however, you should follow your veterinarian's professional advice based on your local soil and pasture mineral content.

Will this help with mastitis prevention?

Yes, by supporting a healthier immune system, the bolus helps reduce the incidence of mastitis, thereby saving on treatment and waste milk costs.

How many come in a pack?

This product comes in a 50-pack.

Troubleshooting

Lamb is younger than six weeks

Do not administer; wait until the lamb has reached at least six weeks of age and is fully ruminating.

Lamb weighs over 25kg

Consult your veterinarian for a dosage or product variant more suitable for heavier, older livestock.

Difficulty swallowing bolus

Ensure the use of a correctly sized applicator and check that the animal's head is held in a neutral, extended position to straighten the esophagus.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure efficacy, the lambs must be ruminating and weigh less than 25kg; this formulation is not appropriate for larger or younger animals. Administration should be performed using an appropriate bolus applicator to ensure the product reaches the rumen safely without causing physical damage to the throat. Always ensure the animal is properly restrained during administration. As this product is a long-term release device, keep unused boluses in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture to maintain the integrity of the active ingredients until needed.
