HeiferXcel™

1. Suitability for Post-Puberty Heifers (8–15 months)

✔ Frame & Skeletal Maturity – VERY GOOD

• Calcium + Phosphorus → Ideal Ca:P ratio for bone consolidation
• Magnesium, Sulphur, Manganese, Zinc → support cartilage, joints, and connective tissue
• Prevents tall but weak heifers (common problem when energy is high but minerals are low)

Excellent for locking skeletal strength before breeding.

2. EXCELLENT Body Condition & Energy Balance –

• Bypass Fat → provides energy without rumen overload

• Chromium → improves glucose utilization and insulin sensitivity
• Prevents negative energy balance as heifer approaches breeding weight

Ideal for achieving BCS 3.0–3.25 without fat deposition in mammary tissue.

3. Puberty Consolidation & STRONG Estrus Expression –

• Copper, Iodine, Selenium, Zinc, Vitamin A & E
  • Support ovarian enzyme systems
  • Improve heat intensity and cyclicity
• Cobalt → Vitamin B12 synthesis → better energy metabolism

Supports regular cycles and visible estrus, though it is nutritional support, not a hormonal inducer.

4. Gut Health & Feed Efficiency – VERY IMPORTANT AT THIS STAGE

• Live Yeast + Yeast Metabolites + MOS
  • Stabilize rumen fermentation
  • Improve fiber digestion
  • Reduce growth checks due to acidosis or feed variation

A major strength—most heifer premixes ignore gut health at this stage.

5. Mammary & Future Milk Potential – SAFE & SUPPORTIVE

• No excessive starch or unprotected energy
• Balanced protein + minerals + vitamins
• Avoids premature fat deposition in udder

Safe for future milk yield, unlike aggressive weight gain products.
