Waste milk may be fed fresh as in Louisiana
(2) and Pennsylvania (1) trials. Practical experience indicates that if containers are kept
clean, waste milk can be held satisfactorily
under refrigeration for up to 3 days. Some
problems of lack of constant supply may beencountered, but in larger herds there usually
are at least a few lactating cows undergoing
treatment at all times. This would permit
feeding a portion of the calves on waste milk,
the remainder on fermented colostrum. The
advisability of mixing waste milk and colostrum
has not been investigated.
