Heifers Intended for Breeding: For Suppression of Estrus (Heat).

Not for human use.

Liquid Type B and C medicated feeds containing melengestrol acetate must have a pH of 4.0 to 8.0 and their labels must bear appropriate mixing directions. Mixing directions for liquid Type B (or C) feeds stored in recirculation tank systems are: “Recirculate immediately prior to use for no less than 10 minutes, moving not less than 1 percent of the tank contents per minute from the bottom of the tank to the top. Recirculate daily, as directed in this paragraph even when the Type B (or C) feed is not used.” Mixing directions for liquid Type B and C feeds stored in mechanical, air or other agitation-type tank systems are: “Agitate immediately prior to use for not less than 10 minutes, creating a turbulence at the bottom of the tank that is visible at the top. Agitate daily, as directed in this paragraph, even when the Type B (or C) feed is not used.”

Intermediate premixes should not be made from HEIFERMAX^® 500 except as a part of a continuous mixing operation to make a complete liquid Type B (or C) medicated feed.

Thoroughly mix 0.5 to 4 pounds of HEIFERMAX^® 500 per ton of a non-medicated feed to prepare a Type C medicated feed containing 0.25 to 2.0 grams of melengestrol acetate per ton. The following table may be used as a guide in determining the amount of HEIFERMAX^® 500 to be added to prepare a ton of Type C medicated feed.

Type B medicated feed containing 4 to 10 grams melengestrol acetate per ton may be manufactured by thoroughly mixing 8 to 20 lbs of HEIFERMAX^® 500 with 1992 to 1980 lbs of non-medicated feed. Labeling for such Type B feed shall contain directions for manufacturing Type C medicated feeds containing 0.25 to 2.0 grams melengestrol acetate per ton (0.125 to 1.0 mg/lb). The Type C medicated feed, containing melengestrol acetate, must be top dressed on grain or roughage or mixed with a complete ration at the rate of 0.5 to 2.0 pounds per head per day.

Good manufacturing practice regulations must be adhered to in manufacturing feeds containing HEIFERMAX^® 500.
