Frequently asked questions

Which calcium is best for dairy cows?

A chelated liquid calcium with phosphorus, vitamin D3 and galactagogue herbs — such as Chelated Calcicril — is ideal, as it is well absorbed and supports both milk yield and milk-fever prevention.

Why chelated calcium?

Chelated minerals are bound to amino acids, so they are absorbed far more efficiently than ordinary mineral salts — meaning more usable calcium per dose.

Does it prevent milk fever?

Regular calcium support around calving helps maintain blood calcium and reduces the risk of milk fever; follow veterinary guidance for high-risk animals.

Can poultry use it?

Yes, at 10–20 ml per 100 birds in drinking water.
