Omnibos® Probiotic Solutions for Dairy Cows and Calves

There are many factors affecting the health of dairy cows and calves, many of which impact the balance of the gut microflora. Omni-bos probiotics are based on unique, scientifically selected strains for use in dairy cows and neonatal dairy calves.

Why use probiotics?

Probiotics are microorganisms, which are widely recognized for their ability to aid in establishing and maintaining a balanced microflora in the gut.

Because the calf’s gut is sterile at birth, calves need to establish a healthy gut microflora quickly to optimize their digestion and minimize the risk of enteric disease. 

The balance of the developing gut microflora is key to rumen development and growth, efficient nutrient utilization by the calf, and resistance to enteric disease caused by pathogenic bacteria invading the gut. 

An unfavorable composition of the gut microflora will therefore have a negative impact on calf health, growth, and weaning transition. Clinical signs of imbalance of the gut microflora include scours.

Why use Omni-bos® CB?

Omni-bos CB is a multi-strain probiotic based on three unique scientifically selected Bacillus subtilis strains for use in the neonatal dairy calf.
  • Helps maintain a healthy and balanced gut microflora 
  • Contains stable bacteria allowing for viable delivery to the calf. 

Best results are achieved when used from birth in milk replacer or waste milk.

 Calf health is affected by many interrelated factors:

  • Pathogens
  • Immune development
  • Nutrition
  • Colostrum passive transfer
  • Stress
  • Environmental conditions
