Pro-Lix Cattle Supplement
 Silver
Creek Pro-Lix started approximately 10 yrs ago when we thought our cows
could look & perform better. We have seen many in the cattle business come & go,
but overall were pretty impressed with the results we achieved from using Pro-Lix
liquid feed supplement on our own cattle. The cows seemed to breed back better
and we noticed larger weaning weights. There are a lot of other similar products
on the market, but after cleaning “leftover” from other brands it was clear the
Pro-Lix brand did a better job, reminding even us “you get what you pay for”.
The Pro-Lix even seems to make cows do a better job of cleaning up pastures of
dried grasses and utilizing poorer hay/forage crops. We do try to give personal
attention to all customers. Ken has been in the cattle business for most of his
adult life and can answer most questions, such as how much an average cow
consumes, cost effectiveness, when/how to feed, and generally most other issues.
If not, he will find out for you. Farming is a full-time job here so usually if
Ken cannot be reached call Dale (Ken’s personal secretary) to deliver to you,
offer advise and whatever else a customer may need. We thank all of you and
truly appreciate your business.
Important Prolix Information
Numerous
research studies confirm that proper nutrition ensures cows wean more,
healthier, heavier calves. Feeding Pro-Lix has been shown to improve
digestion and absorption of nutrients vital to the cow's pregnancy, and to
the birth of healthy newborn calves. In addition, when calves consume Pro-Lix
too, their growth is dramatically improved over those with no
supplementation.

Proper nutrition during pregnancy is
essential
to healthy calves.
A paper published by Larry R. Corah, of the University of
Florida, asserted that the last two months of a cow's pregnancy were
the most important, nutritionally. "Research has shown clearly
that improper nutrition during this period will influence calf birth
weight, calf vigor, and calf survival. There is no advantage to
reducing the cow's plane of nutrition to reduce calf size as a means
of alleviating calving difficulty. Poor nutrition during this period
will ... reduce calf weaning weights." When you see the
results of research showing how much more nutrition your herd
digests when a liquid supplement is fed, it becomes obvious why cows
on Pro-Lix produce more, healthier and heavier calves each year.
Pro-Lix provides the catalyst for better digestion of fiber, protein
and other nutrients so important to the development of a healthy
fetus. |

Maximizing Your Investment
To maintain high-producing herds, cattlemen have learned they must
make sure the entire herd gets the nutrition they need. And the best
way to maintain proper nutrient levels is to feed Pro-Lix. Pro-Lix,
a family of molasses-based, nutrient-dense liquid supplements,
provides energy, protein, vitamins and minerals to help your cows
produce more, healthier calves, and your calves to gain more weight.
Our liquid supplements outperform dry supplements because, while
they are fed free-choice, they are very palatable to the animal and
allow it to balance its own nutrient intake. Pro-Lix is economical
to feed, has proven consumption control and is backed by research.
Make sure your cows and calves get the nutrition they need for
maximum production and weight gain. Feed Pro-Lix year-round!
