Feeding Instructions

Practical guidance for optimal herd performance

  1. Placement

    Place containers in areas that achieve desired supplement intake.

  2. Relocation

    Once acceptable intake levels have been achieved, the containers may be moved to underutilized pasture areas to improve grazing distribution and forage utilization.

  3. Accessibility

    A minimum of two (2) containers may be necessary in each free-stall pen, lot, or pasture to ensure proper accessibility.

  4. Quantity

    Feed at the rate of one container for every 20–30 head. Cattle typically consume between 0.1 and 0.5 pounds per head per day.

  5. Monitoring

    Self-fed consumption will depend on size of the animals fed, seasonal weather conditions, as well as the quality, source, and availability of other feeds.

CRYSTALYX BLUEPRINT TRANSITION STRESS FORMULA supplement is designed to be self-fed to lactating and non-lactating dairy cattle, calves and growing cattle during periods of transition and increased stress. For dairy cows, provide CRYSTALYX BLUEPRINT TRANSITION STRESS FORMULA as a self-fed supplement during critical periods of stress, such as the transition period 3 weeks prior to and 3 weeks after calving. CRYSTALYX BLUEPRINT TRANSITION STRESS FORMULA should only be offered during anticipated periods of stress and is not intended for use over extended feeding periods, or as a substitute for improper animal care, or facility management.

Sick Pens & Pen-Raised Calves: Place containers near water source of feed bunks, preferably elevated from ground level to minimize contamination with dirt and other foreign materials that may discourage consumption. Use one container per head for individually-fed animals, and one (1) container for every 3-10 head when calves are fed in groups. Calves typically consume between 0.1 and 0.5 pounds per head per day.

ALL CONSUMPTION FIGURES STATED HERE ARE APPROXIMATE. PROVIDE FREE ACCESS TO CLEAN, FRESH WATER AT ALL TIMES. CRYSTALYX BLUEPRINT TRANSITION STRESS FORMULA SUPPLEMENT CONTAINS NO SALT. PROVIDE SALT FREE-CHOICE.

WARNING: This product, which contains added copper, should not be fed to sheep or any species that have a low tolerance to supplemental copper.

WARNING: For Jersey Dairy cattle, which are known to be sensitive to copper toxicity, consider all sources of dietary copper in the complete diet. Supplemental copper sources and/or ingredient levels may need to be modified in these animal feeding situations.

NOTE: CRYSTALYX Brand Supplements deliver a continuous supply of nutrients and are designed as a supplement to the animal’s diet.
