UltraCruz Goat Copper Bolus Supplement for Kids, 25 Count

Key Benefits of Copper for Goat Kids

Copper is a vital trace mineral for goats, playing a role in immune function, growth, and the maintenance of a healthy coat and skin. It also contributes to normal red blood cell formation and nerve function. Supplementing with copper boluses can help support the overall wellbeing of your kids during their crucial early development.

When to Consider Copper Supplementation for Your Kids

Copper deficiency may arise in goats raised on low-copper soils or diets reliant on copper-poor forages. Signs include poor growth, rough hair coat, anaemia, and weakened immunity. A copper bolus offers a practicable solution to maintain adequate levels. Always consult a veterinarian to determine if supplementation is needed and to establish the correct dosage for your herd.
