The 3 Qs of colostrum - Quantity, Quality, Quickly should be observed. <br>Quantity - The recommendation is to give a first feed of 3 litres or 10% of body weight. This should be followed by another similar feed within 12 hours of birth. <br>Quality - Good quality colostrum contains at least 50g/litre of IgG. Any colostrum containing less than 20g/litre should not be used. <br>Quickly - It is important that calves receive their first colostrum feed as soon as possible after birth, ideally within 2 hours.<br> '''Duration''' = 11 minutes 33 seconds
