Pregnancy-Check Time is Critical for Maintaining a Profitable Ranch Operation!
Is your cow/heifer pregnant? Then it is time for MULTIMIN® 90
Just like human babies, calves thrive better when their moms are in a positive nutritional state during pregnancy. Pregnant cows and heifers also need prenatal supplements such as trace minerals:
- to keep the cow/heifer at the right body condition score
- to sustain pregnancy
- to stack the fetus with trace minerals to ensure that the calf is healthy after birth
- for proper fetal development
Inject MULTIMIN® 90 because:
- Pregnancy is a period of high demand for both the cow/heifer and her fetus and studies showed that cattle have improved trace mineral status within 8-10 hours after treatment.
- Oral trace minerals do no good if cattle do not eat them.
- Availability and quality of forage nutrients vary seasonally, so trace mineral intake varies.
- Being an injectable, antagonists such as sulfur, molybdenum and iron which tie up trace minerals are bypassed.
- Every animal injected is supplemented.
By injecting MULTIMIN® 90 any time from preg-check to 30 days before calving, you ensure that every pregnant dam is properly supplemented with copper, selenium, zinc and manganese.

At the label dose of 1ml/200lbs body weight for a 1,200lb cow over 2 years of age, the dose for MULTIMIN® 90 is 6ml. This 2-in-1 treatment for the cow and her fetus is less than $3
PREVENTING PNEUMONIA OUTBREAKS SHORTLY AFTER WEANING PAYS!
At weaning, calves need more trace minerals. They are stressed, often not eating enough, and they need to respond properly to vaccines, which also drain trace minerals. However, the calves are growing rapidly, and they may already be trace mineral deficient.

Several independent university studies showed calves treated with 
at the same time as vaccines had:
- Earlier and stronger vaccine responses
- More calves respond to vaccine which results in better herd immunity
- Fewer signs of disease after a disease challenge
- Dairy calves had improved ADG following disease challenge.
