Count on Rescue Lamb & Kid
Rescue Lamb & Kid is a high-level colostrum replacer produced from nutrient-rich, natural bovine serum.
Rescue Lamb & Kid
Ensuring they consume enough colostrum in the 24 hours following birth is critical to their survival. But sometimes you have multiples or orphans, or there just isn’t enough colostrum to go around. LIFELINE Rescue Lamb & Kid is a high-level colostrum replacer that delivers energy plus 88 grams of total protein (based on body weight) to ensure your newborns thrive.
Formulated especially for tiny bellies
Rescue Lamb & Kid is the only serum-based colostrum replacer specifically for newborn lambs and kids. Made from natural bovine serum, the highly concentrated powder delivers complete nutrition in small feedings that are easy for baby animals to eat and digest.
Feed Rescue Lamb & Kid:
To preemies, multiples and orphans
During extreme weather or stressful conditions
When colostrum is in short supply
How is Rescue Lamb & Kid different from other colostrum replacers?
Most colostrum replacers are made from dried bovine colostrum or dried whey. Rescue Lamb & Kid is made from nutrient-rich, natural bovine serum. Research has shown that the components in serum are very similar to those found in colostrum, and that the effectiveness of serum-based colostrum replacers is equal to that of high-quality colostrum in supporting animal health. In addition, serum is a highly concentrated source of nutrition, which results in a smaller amount of powder that is easy for baby animals to eat and digest.
Does Rescue Lamb & Kid have only globulin protein to offer the newborn?
In addition to serum-based globulin protein, Rescue Lamb & Kid provides 88 grams of total protein (based on body weight), energy derived from fat & carbohydrates, and vitamins & minerals newborns need for long-term health and performance.
Feeds 6-14 animals as a supplement or 3-7 animals as a replacer (depending on body weight)

For each feeding, mix 1/4 cup of powder into 4 ounces of warm (105°F/40°C) water. Stir until the powder dissolves completely. Feed the mixture to the animal via nipple feeder or esophageal feeder.

Rescue Lamb & Kid can be fed as a colostrum supplement to provide added nutrition that helps lambs & kids thrive. To feed as a supplement mix 2 tablespoons of powder into 2 ounces of warm (105°F/40°C) water and feed in addition to colostrum. When used as a supplement, one tub (1.3 lb) of Rescue Lamb & Kid feeds 6–14 animals and one pail (9.3 lb) feeds 42–98 animals.

Rescue Lamb & Kid should be mixed in water only. When added to colostrum, the increase in total solids content may result in a mixture that is too thick for the animal to eat.

Rescue Lamb & Kid has a 24-month shelf life when stored unopened in a cool, dry place at a temperature of 50°–86°F. Once the tub has been opened be sure to seal the lid tightly between feedings to keep air out and freshness in. Once Rescue Lamb & Kid is mixed with water it should be fed immediately and never stored.
