Dr.O. I saw this as a new "supplement" when I was going to order my thrush buster, it struck me as unusual. Since we do have to get colostrum in the calves or new born foals with in the first 12 hrs..with sooner being better, can colstrum actually do any good after that??? and why would anyone want to give bovine colostrum to a horse??

Thanks for any explanation, makes me curious.

Diane we explain colostrum use and even the possible use of bovine colostrum at Diseases of Horses » Cardiovascular, Blood, and Immune System » Failure of Passive Transfer of Immunity.
