Used in Australia for many years, the Excal calf feeder features the well-proven Excal Fast-flow teat, with non-return valve in the back to help weak or new-born calves start suckling. The air valve can be covered with finger or thumb if suckling is too fast. A good nursing bottle at a great price.

• Broad spectrum worm control
• Provides rotation away from BZ drenches
• Only non-BZ drench with meat WHP and ESI for goats

DOSAGE

Caprimec is given orally at the recommended dose rate of 1mL/4kg bodyweight

Bodyweight	Dose Volume	Goats treated
(kg)	(mL)	1L	5L
10-12	3	333	1666
13-16	4	250	1250
17-20	5	200	1000
21-30	7.5	133	666
31-40	10	100	500
41-50	12.5	80	400
51-60	15	66	333
61-70	17.5	57	285
71-80	20	50	250

Animals in excess of 80kg dosed at 1mL/4kg.

WITHHOLDING PERIODS/ESI

• Meat: 14 days
• Milk: Milk collected from does within 4 days (8 milkings), following treatment must not be used for human consumption or processing, or fed to bobby kids
• ESI: 23 days

 Only ML drench registered for goats

✓ Contains abamectin, the responsible ML
✓ Broad spectrum worm control
✓ Provides rotation away from BZ drenches
✓ Only non-BZ drench with meat WHP and ESI
for goats

Why Choose Caprimec

1. Only macrocyclic lactone (ML) drench
registered for goats
The macrocyclic lactone (ML) drench family is widely used in
animal health programs. It is a highly effective group of drenches
with a broad spectrum of parasite control and a wide safety margin.
Until now, no MLs were available for use in goats. Caprimec is the
fi rst to be registered for use in goats.

2. Contains abamectin
Abamectin is a highly potent, short acting member of the ML
family of drenches. It achieves high potency without having a long
chemical ‘tail’, making it the ML of choice for delaying the onset of
drench resistance in goat worms.

3. Broad spectrum worm control
Caprimec will control all major internal parasites that are
susceptible to an ML drench. These include gastrointestinal
roundworms and large lungworm. These worms reduce overall
productivity especially in young animals.

4. Provides rotation away from benzimidazole
drenches
Caprimec is the fi rst registered non-BZ drench with safety and
residue data for goats, making the ideal choice to rotate with
traditionally used benzimidazole (BZ) drenches. BZ drenches are
the drenches traditionally used in goat farming operations, as no
other families of drenches had been registered for worm control.
Resistance to BZ drenches is, however, becoming a widespread
problem. In NSW, for example, BZ drench resistance is estimated
to be present on over 90% of sheep properties.

Developed by South Australian farmer Ian Thorpe, the Tin Dog can save a lot of yelling and whistling. Especially useful around yards and races. The six steel discs make quite a racket, to keep stock moving. All galvanised construction. Handy side hook to hang on a nail or fence wire. Give the dog a break.

The Excal lamb feeder is well known in New Zealand and Australia. The bottle is lightweight 1-litre capacity. Air inlet is via the small valve mounted in the handle cavity. It can be covered with thumb or finger to slow-up drinking rate, if desired.

This single-place lamb feeder is being used in a novel way. Use with cold milk as an ad-lib feeder. The cold milk limits over-feeding, and also keeps longer. In fact, to assist, drop an Esky cold pack, or a small frozen bottle of water in milk. Remember to cover the feeder with something to keep flies out. The black Excal 'Regular' teat is not recommended for new-borns, but it will last longer with stronger animals feeding ad-lib. Capacity 5 litres.
