Milk-Flavor Continuity
for Calf Starters

VS382 + VS7188 · the calf transition route

Industry Background

The challenge

Early starter intake is what develops the rumen — and the biggest barrier to starter intake is the sensory cliff between sweet, milky liquid feed and dry pellets. Calves that cross that gap late grow slower for months.

Flavor continuity closes the gap: the same sweet dairy signal in the milk replacer and the starter tells the calf that both are feed.
