CALF TONGUES
I’m feeding 50 calves every day. I’ve found a calf’s tongue is a forgotten element in the making of a good cow. A wide tongue correlates to width of eyes, muzzle and chest, allowing her to do better and take off into a growthy calf and productive cow.

“Our herd’s ration has Immu-Pro in it every day.” Just as Wisconsin is known for world-famous cheese, the Kestell family is synonymous with their ultra-high milk production, predominantly home-bred herd. Top dairymen worldwide know the great Ever-Green-View herd and frequently purchase their embryos and breeding stock, and often visit and consult with the Kestells. With a rolling herd average of 45,000M 1710F 1397P 3x (the world’s highest herd average) and great BAA of 111.4%, 52 EX and 72 VG cows, it’s easy to see why. Tom and Gin were selected the 2017 Distinguished Cattle Breeders by Dairy Shine. Tom greatly credits success to family, employees, supporting professionals, and friends. Tom and family pour out their lives to help dairymen everywhere achieve success by offering free advice and guidance. Their Ever-Green-View My Gold EX-93 was former world’s record holder 77,477 lbs, together with her dam 72,170 lbs EX-92 – the only world record-holding dam and daughter pair. “Immu-Pro is obviously part of our success.” Tom & Gin Kestell, Holstein Association USA’s 2018 Elite Breeder award recipients.

“... more milk, fewer problems, lower SCC.” — Chad Fredd
GRAPEVIEW DAIRY, Robotic milking Chad Fredd, WESTFIELD, NEW YORK 220 cows, 80 lbs, SCC 120,000
“I am a big fan of Udder Comfort™. I have always loved this product. It’s a tool that helps us achieve better milk. We have not had to use intramammary treatments on lactating cows since 2002,” says Chad Fredd. He has been using Udder Comfort for over 15 years and has been milking his 220 cows robotically now for 6 years at Grapeview Dairy, Westfield, New York. “In addition to using Udder Comfort on most fresh animals, we use the robot’s conductivity reading to identify a cow with subclinical mastitis, then locate her in the stalls and spray the udder daily until the reading goes down. It’s important to get on it early.
“We find the optimum for most fresh cows is to apply it for 3 days. We’ll go 5 to 7 days for high SCC and heifers. “This reduces edema, so we have less caking, more milk, fewer problems and lower SCC.” Quality Udders Make Quality Milk
Keep the milk in the system 1.888.773.7153 1.613.652.9086 uddercomfort.com Call to locate a distributor near you. For external application to the udder only after milking, as an essential component of udder management. Always wash and dry teats thoroughly before milking.
