Calf Feeds

Patton’s calf and heifer range is carefully formulated to produce a correctly balanced and highly palatable range of diets. At Patton’s we have a ration formulated at each stage of the growth phase in order to promote good growth rates, strong bone formation and good health. Special attention is paid to vitamin and mineral supplementation to enhance the ability of the young calf to resist disease and maintain the healthy growth rate required.
