A friend of mine is in need of colostrum. Can anybody tell me where I can find some....in a hurry??? And, what is the "going rate"???
Thanks for any help.

Colostrum
Moderators: Roguelet, hpkingjr, WaveMaster, madelyn
Thank you both. I spoke with her this morning, and she thinks the mare may still be about a week out. She's very concerned because she has no bag. She knows the mare was pastured on fescue (until arriving at her barn), and wants to have the colostrum on hand (there's no place locally to get it).
She/we are outside of Ashland....right where the OH/WV/KY borders meet - on the Ohio River.
I will be traveling up to WI next weekend, and could stop and pick it up for her -- provided it's not too late.

You can get replacement colostrum from most feed stores. Also, foals born to mares who are not producing colostrum can be given plasma. Have your friend talk to her vet.
