Effects of feeding untreated, pasteurized and acidified waste milk and bunk tank milk on the performance, serum metabolic profiles, immunity, and intestinal development in Holstein calves by Zou, Y., Wang, Y., Deng, Y.

Species targeted: Dairy;
Age: Young;
Summary:
The present experiment was performed to assess the effects of different sources of milk on the growth performance, serum metabolism, immunity, and intestinal development of calves. Eighty-four Holstein male neonatal calves were assigned to one of the following four treatment groups: those that received bunk tank milk(BTM), untreated waste milk (UWM), pasteurized waste milk (PWM), and acidified waste milk (AWM) for 21 d.Conclusions: Overall, bunk tank milk is the best choice for calf raising compared to waste milk. The efficiency offeeding pasteurized and acidified waste milk are comparable, and the acidification of waste milk is an acceptablelabor-saving and diarrhea-preventing feed for young calves.
