Carreg Farm’s own, Ed Morgan, milks 240 autumn calving Holsteins on his farm in Mold, North Wales. The team have been using the All Guard Iodine Max 5in1 Bolus for 6 years, and they could not be happier with the results, and how simple it was to introduce into their routine.

“I feel that through giving the bolus we know we’re giving them extra vitamins and minerals they need, and it’s just helping in the long run really with running the herd”

“It’s something simple, it’s become routine for us”

Dominic Naylor, farm manager at Lilburn Estate in Northumberland, calves 2,100 stabilisers and has 7,000 ewes. The estate has been using a range of different Mayo boluses such as, the All Guard Iodine Max 5in1 Bolus, the All Guard 4in1 Ewe Bolus, and the All Guard 4in1 Lamb Bolus for 8 years now and has been amazed by the results and is confident that any missing elements are now being covered.

“We got on to the Mayo bolus and we have had no problems since then”

“I think a year like this, where we’ve had heavy rainfall and everything’s been washed out of the ground, it’s absolutely essential that you bolus your livestock, and the bolus for me is the Mayo bolus”

Dylan Roberts, runs 130 suckler cows, on Fron Farm in Hendre, North Wales. Dylan has been using the All Guard Iodine Max 5in1 Bolus. Since introducing the bolus to their routine, Dylan and the team have spotted significant results and improvements in areas such as growth, and are assured that the cows are getting all the elements that they require.

“It’s absolutely essential that we do them two months prior to calving, it increases the quality of milk and it helps with fertility”

“Previously we used to buy minerals in 30 kilo bags, but we could never ensure ourselves that they were all taking it, with a bolus we all know that they’re taking the required amount”
