Strauss Feeds Premium 26/17 Calf Milk Replacer is specially formulated to provide optimal nutrition for the growing dairy calf. Strauss Feeds, using its unique proprietary technology, manufactures this high-quality milk replacer that mixes easily and performs exceptionally well.

PROTEINS – Proteins, broken down into amino acids, are the building blocks of muscle. Strauss Feeds Premium 26/17 Calf Milk Replacer contains only the highest quality proteins that are derived exclusively from milk ingredients.

ENERGY – Fat provides a large percentage of the energy in a milk replacer. Strauss Feeds Premium 26/17 Calf Milk Replacer contains a unique combination of fats that includes coconut oil. The coconut oil contains medium chain fatty acids, which are more digestible in newborn calves than just the long chain fatty acids from lard and tallow that are typically found in most milk replacers, as shown in the following table:
