RESTORES NORMAL GUT FUNCTION

Redmond First Month helps calves continue to grow and achieve weights by restoring healthy gut function:

Protects gut lining
Slows digestive passage rate so fluids and nutrients absorb more readily
Binds to harmful toxins so they can be excreted instead of absorbed
Replaces and feeds beneficial digestive microbe colonies

NATURALLY TREATS SCOURS

As a calf scours treatment, First Month naturally corrects the acidosis, dehydration, and loss of energy and nutrients caused by scours:

Alkaline content to buffer acidosis and balance pH levels
Replenishes lost electrolytes/salts;
Smectite clays slow the digestive passage rate to allow for better nutrient and fluid absorption into the blood
Replaces microbe strains that are stripped and killed off by scours

REDUCES CALF MORTALITY RATES

A study conducted by UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine found that Redmond's smectite clay (used in First Month) reduced calf mortality rates by 63%.

REDUCING DEATH RATES WITH REDMOND

BOOSTS IMMUNE HEALTH

First Month helps protect calves when their immune system is at its most vulnerable. Our ingredients guard immune health in multiple ways:

Redmond's clay conditioner has natural anti-microbial properties and inhibits pathogen growth without damaging beneficial bacteria;
Mannan-Oligosaccharides (MOS) prevent harmful pathogens from attaching and colonizing in the intestines;
A study by UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine found that Redmond's smectite clay (used in First Month) increases immunoglobulin and mineral levels in the blood
