"Brigade® Pays Off" for Kentucky Cattle Company
Loy Brothers
Russel Springs, KY
February, 2004
The Loy Brothers know about cattle. The family raises 1,200 broodcows and pre-conditions between 10,000 and 12,000 calves per year in Russell Springs, Kentucky. The three Loy brothers and their sons also own and operate the Russell County Stockyards. And they know about CRYSTALYX® Brigade® Stress Fighting Formula and the positive effects it can have on cattle that are affected by stress.
"We have been using Brigade® for two years," Darrell Loy said. "It works, and costs less per-head, per-day than we expected."
"Calves seem to take to it early and look for it when they come in. We feel that the electrolytes, copper and selenium help get the calves off to a faster start with much less sickness and stress. Brigade® pays off and we'll continue using it in our preconditioning program."
Brigade® Stress Fighting Formula is a free-choice supplement fortified with electrolytes and high levels of vitamins, trace minerals and macro minerals to overcome nutritional stress associated with weaning, shipping, grouping and breeding.
Brigade® was recommended to the Loys by a friend who is also in the cattle business. "And we would recommend it to others that buy cattle or have calves to wean," Darrell Loy said. "We're also really pleased with the service of our local dealer, Lake Cumberland Feed and Farm Supply in Russell Springs."
