is skim milk used as milk replacement

[up_n_und3r]

Mga Kuyang,

Need to understand po if ung mga skim milk are being used sa milk replacers? Kung magkaiba sila, ano po mas magandang gamitin?

Can you name po brands ng milk replacers and skim milk you use and how much po sila for our reference?

Thanks.

I would think skim milk would make a very poor replacement for milk replacer.Skim milk is watered down milk.Whole milk watered down gives you 2%,watered down more gives you 1% and watered down even more gives you skim milk.Can milk would be a better choice if I had to chose between the two.Fresh cows milk like whole milk would be the best I would think and can milk second and skim milk at the very bottom.I would think skim milk on its own would produce poor results due in part that most of the fat content has been lowered by cutting the milk with water in the first place.

@ Kuyang up_n_und3r,

Na try ko Milkolac at Foster milk...Okay naman pero mukhang medyo tedious kasi pag hindi ito totally melted using hot water...medyo bumabasa iyong dumi ng mga biik...ewan ko lng kung anong mali sa aking pagamit pangalawang beses ko pa namn nagamit 'to.

You can try too and share to us whatever findings you may have...

sabi ng isang vet namin dito mas okay kung ang gamitin na milk replacer ay yung infant milk gaya ng lactum, promil, bonakid.
yung milkolak effective din yun gamitin para sa inahin na hindi nagproproduce ng milk o maliit lang ang milk nya.
ang foster milk naman mahina, mabagal pa rin ang paglaki ng mga biik. at hindi sila bigatin.

@deanellen,

At some point tama cguro yong vet mo...pangalawang beses pa naman akong nagtry sa mga milk replacer na ito..

Tama nga, medyo magaan yong mga biik as per edad nila...pero tantiya ko parang may kulang lng cguro sa tamang procedure o may mga ibang ingredient na missing? kasi, sa nakita ko sa label nila andoon ang  mga basic nutrients na kailangan sa mga biik....

Sa mga kuyang natin na may malawakang experience sa paggamit ng milk replacer paki-share naman po..
