Nutritech, in combination with Lallemand Animal Nutrition, has launched EazyBed® Pro – a specific bacterial bedding conditioner to help maintain dry, hygienic bedding.
To rear healthy calves for optimum lifetime performance, we need to provide proper nutrition and a healthy environment for the calves supported by good overall management.
To achieve the objective of rearing healthy calves, we need to provide the calves with dry, hygienic bedding. Maintaining dry bedding, free of bad bacteria is important for the health and growth of calves. Lallemand Animal Nutrition, a world leader in the manufacture of yeast and bacteria probiotics, has launched EazyBed® Pro, a bedding “conditioner” to help maintain hygienic, dry bedding.
EazyBed® Pro contains a mix of zeolite clay, lime, live bacteria and enzymes
- Zeolite clay and lime help to absorb moisture
- Enzymes facilitate the breakdown of fibrous compounds (sawdust, shavings, straw) in the bedding material allowing access for the bacteria
- Lactic acid producing bacteria feed on the fibrous material to reduce pH in the bedding and improve fermentation leading to drier, hygienic bedding
- The bacillus bacteria promote a positive bacteria biofilm, providing an unfavourable environment for bad bacteria to reside on the surfaces of the bedding.
