Subject: RE: Feeding acidified milk to dairy calves


I would stay away from acidifying. We did this several years ago. There seemed to be countless ways we could fail with this. We would say one of the largest problems would be depressed intakes due to the acidification and the cooler milk temperatures was our thoughts. This seemed to be especially a struggle in cold weather when higher intakes were needed. The Process can work, but for us it seemed very easy to mess up. I would look at pasteurization. This process is much easier to monitor and maintain in our opinion, The tripping point here would be the initial investment. However with a little searching there may be some used machines available. ( we have one available)
