FOR
• Adult sheep: 1 capsule
• Ruminating calves 75kg bodyweight and over: 2 capsules
SUPPLIED PER CAPSULE
Copper oxide ≈ 4 g (equiv. 3.48 g elemental copper)
Ideal to give
• Adult sheep: pre-breeding and pre-lambing
• Ruminating calves: at weaning, then 4 – 6 months later
SUPERIOR PERFORMANCE
Capsules are inserted orally using a specially designed Animax applicator.
The copper oxide rods are released and lodge in the folds of the stomach lining.
The needles pass slowly through the ruminant stomachs for a period of 2 to 3 months and the liver reserves are topped up.
Stores of copper build up in the liver, as the copper is absorbed in the abomasum (fourth stomach) at a steady rate.
The copper reserves that have built up in the liver are released gradually for approximately 6 months.
