Anitone is an Australian made, natural organic liquid mineral and trace element feed supplement for all animals. Anitone provides over 60 minerals and trace elements in a highly bioavailable, chelated form to supplement the diets of all domestic animals.

Why Anitone?
Anitone is the only liquid animal supplement available on the market for animal production with such a comprehensive range of ingredients, containing not only essential minerals, but also amino acids, and Vitamins A, D and Vitamin E.
Anitone is the only feed supplement on the market that is fermented in a process that mimics natural digestive processes, and is therefore highly palatable and relished by most animals.

How is Anitone made?
Anitone is derived from a careful manufacturing process that involves the fermentation of mineral rich plant extracts together with common stockfeed ingredients, such as molasses. This fermentation process enhances the value of all the ingredients contained in Anitone, and elevates it from a regular stock feed supplement to a "super food". 

Vitamins and minerals that have been absorbed into plants form complex molecules called "phytocomplexes". These complicated natural substances cannot be reproduced in a laboratory and are becoming increasingly recognized as superior dietary sources of many nutrients. As the fermentation process used in making Anitone mimics digestion, the vitamins and minerals it contains thus become highly bioavailable to gut microflora immediately after dosing over the tongue, or mixing in feed or water.

There are over 60 minerals contained in Anitone, along with good levels of Vitamin A, D and E, plus a range of amino acids essential for growth and metabolism. In addition, Anitone provides a wide variety of plant origin volatile oils, chlorophyll, sterols, growth factors, alginates, humic and fulvic acids, vitamins and trace minerals, including many trace minerals such as selenium, zinc, iron, copper, cobalt, zinc, chromium, boron, manganese, nickel, vanadium – some of these more obscure elements are being proven by modern research to have emerging roles in maintaining peak metabolic function.

Most of these nutrients are also fundamental to maintaining healthy gut microflora, which perform the real work of digestion for the animal.

Many of these nutrients may be missing from modern diets, especially when they contain processed food, or from marginal pastures during harsh seasons, or may easily become depleted in times of stress and high physical demand.

The addition of Anitone to any animal production operation therefore ensures that animals gain maximum benefit from their daily food due to its supportive effect on gut microflora. However Anitone is a truly multi-tasking product because it can also be used in a bolus dose down the throat to revive a depressed or weakened animal, or to change mental attitude and enable the animal to cope with stress. For this reason, Anitone is a very useful product for animal owners to use to buffer the stress of the transport journey itself, or period of travelling away from home to competitions or sales.

How to Use Anitone:
Anitone is highly water soluble, and is designed for oral use which can be in a variety of ways to suit many operations. 

• May be used as an oral drench and mixes well with most water soluble commercial drenches and will not damage drench gun rubbers, animal's mouths or human skin as it is a completely natural product.
• May be poured over feed rations, or mixed through them – either pour over the total ration (calculate per head dose or use at 5% ration), or can be poured or sprayed onto hay, or sprayed over grain via a grain applicator, (standard rate to spray into grain of 10 litres liquid per ton, using 5 litres Anitone mixed with 5 litres water)
• May be added to drinking water wherever there is good flow through watering systems, and may be added to overhead tanks or distributed into sheds and troughs, providing water is not allowed to become stagnant. If added to drinking water, use at rate of 2%, or calculate dose per head according to known water consumption.
• Is useful as a single shotgun dose if not convenient to give regularly, but works best when adapted to frequent and regular doses, at least once or twice weekly if possible. May also be given daily to show and performance animals, or animals that are in recovery or subjected to repeatedly stressful conditions.

NOTE:  20L size available only for pickup from our Jimboomba warehouse. 

• Excellent quality Bainbridge Marking Rings.

• Used for the marking of calves and lambs.

Equinade Pure Stockholm Tar contains 100% Swedish Pine Tar which is renowned for it's natural mild antiseptic quality. Stockholm held a monopoly for selling pine tar and so the premium form of the product became known as "Stockholm Tar". Substitute materials are marketed as Stockholm tar, but should not be used as a veterinary product. Whilst black in colour, the substitute is a residue of charcoal production (poly phenolic liquor) which contains hazardous chemicals and up to 22% water. Coal tar is also used as a substitute which contains the toxic and hazardous benzopyrene (C2OH12).

Equinade Pure Stockholm Tar is a high quality pine tar produced using closed kilns to extract the valuable sap, without toxic bi-products being produced e.g. creosote.

Benefits & Uses:

• Non-toxic and does not contain water, petroleum based chemicals or carcinogenic creosote
• Natural antiseptic action helps to combat bacterial infections of the hoof and skin, including thrush
• Assists in the treatment of split hooves, split heels, cracks and corns. Promotes a flexible and elastic hoof.
• A valuable ingredient to make preparations such as soap, shampoo, animal dips and hoof applications.
• Other applications include sealing and preventing infection of shearing wounds and when dehorning.
• Also a natural way of sealing exposed branches after pruning.

The Sheep Restrainer is suitable for lambing, foot trimming, transportation, health checks and many other uses.

There are two sizes available which make the restraining device suitable for lambs, sheep, goats and calves.

Instructions (also included on the packaging):


1. Firmly hold the animal and place the animal on its side. With one hand, hook the restrainer under the front leg and then pull the restrainer over the neck while pushing the animals head towards the brisket.


2. Hold the other leg and place into the other side of the restrainer.


3. Place the cord under the neck of the animal and secure the holders at the end of cord in the slots provided. The cord must be held firm around the neck, but not too tight. The cord can be adjusted using the knots or securing the cord around the end holders.

Livamol with BioWorma is a nutritional supplement containing the natural biological control, BioWorma, that captures and consumes infective worm larvae (including chemical resistant/anthelmintic multi-resistant larvae) within the manure of grazing animals.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE

Dosage and Administration: Dose Livamol with BioWorma according to bodyweight.

1. For best results, treat animals with a suitable chemical wormer/anthelmintic.

2. Ideally, where possible, move the treated animals onto low worm pasture (that is, pasture that has not been grazed by the same animal species for a minimum 6 weeks).

3. The most worm susceptible are young animals (from 3 months up to 18-24 months of age) and periparturient females (last month of pregnancy and while producing milk) as they are the most likely to have less resistance to worm infestation due to low immunity. Pasture contamination by adult stock, even with low faecal egg counts (FEC), should not be underestimated considering the volume of faecal material they place on pasture.

4. Commence daily feeding of Livamol with BioWorma to minimise pasture infectivity and maintain the animalÍs low worm status. The product will not reduce pre-existing larval pasture contamination. Thoroughly mix Livamol with BioWorma with feed or feed supplements.

5. Livamol with BioWorma will begin to work immediately within the manure of treated animals, and for best results may be fed continuously when climatic conditions are conducive to BioWorma and parasitic nematode activity.

6. Livamol with BioWorma is recommended for strategic use during periods when weather conditions are conducive to larval development and transmission onto pasture at temperatures above 5 degrees Celsius.

7. Use in conjunction with a recommended worm management strategy for your area by contacting your Veterinarian, Animal Health Advisor or Government Advisory groups for a strategic Integrated Parasite Management (IPM) plan. It is important to consider the principles of refugia.

8. Faecal egg counts (FECs) may be useful to monitor the effectiveness of the worm management strategy. Other options may include faecal egg count reduction test (FECRT) and/or identifying worm species by using faecal larval cultures (FLC).

For oral administration. The required amount of BioWorma should be thoroughly mixed into feed, supplements, premixes, concentrates or loose mixes.

DAILY FEEDING RATES

* Dose according to the heaviest animal in the group. ** Use an additional 100g for each 100kg thereafter. A standard coffee mug (300mL) holds 200g Livamol with Bioworma.

WITHHOLDING PERIOD: Meat: Zero (0) days; Milk: NIL Zero (0) days
