Did you know that stress shifts your cattle's metabolism into survival mode?
Stress may lead to decreasing weight gain and feed conversion and worsening health outcomes. Stress is a major obstacle keeping the cattle industry from becoming a more profitable endeavor. You can overcome stress with FerAppease.
The active ingredient of FerAppease is a synthetic analogue of the Maternal Bovine Appeasing Substance (MBAS). MBAS is a naturally occurring substance that is secreted by the skin of the mammary gland of lactating animals, eliminating stress in all beef cattle treated.
FerAppease is not classed as a medicinal product in accordance with the UK Vetinary Medical Directory and therefore minimises any potential side effects linked to prescribed drugs. FerAppease is a homeopathic solution to reduce stress and anxiety within the cattle.

The active ingredient of FerAppease is a synthetic analogue of the Maternal Bovine Appeasing Substance (MBAS). MBAS is naturally secreted by the sebaceous gland located on the skin of the mammary gland with the unique function of inducing an appeasing effect on the nursing offspring.
FerAppease is topically applied, and the active ingredient (MBAS) is assimilated by the vomeronasal gland located in the nose of the animals. The MBAS stimulation of the vomeronasal gland desensitizes regions of the amygdala and the hypothalamus, dramatically decreasing threat perception and its downstream stress consequences. -
FerAppease can and should be used every time animals are exposed to management and physiological stressors where suppression of threat perception is desirable. i.e. weaning, dehorning, castration, branding, transportation, commingling, vaccination, parturition, interruption of lactation (dry off), breeding, etc.

No, FerAppease does not require a veterinarian's prescription or a Veterinary Feed Directive plan. It is not classed as a medicinal product accordance with the UK VMD.
“Across all the studies that we ran, we typically saw a 15-20% increase in average daily gain post-weaning in calves that received the analogue at the time of weaning.”
