100% naturally occurring organic Oyster Shell and Seashell Rumen Buffers
Ostrea® Seashell and Oyster Shell Flours are a source of chalk derived from natural shell banks in the North Sea. The shells are washed, dried, heated, and then ground into a powder. Ostrea® is not just a rich source of calcium carbonate, but also contains a wealth of other minerals.
Ostrea Oyster Flour is our most popular rumen buffer. It has an extremely complex honeycomb structure that provides all-day protection.
Ostrea’s unique physical and chemical characteristics make it an ideal rumen buffer. It has a large surface area, thanks to its complex honeycomb structure, that helps sustain a more consistent rumen pH. It also provides an excellent source of calcium.
Ostrea Oyster Shell and Seashell are taken from naturally occurring shell deposits in the North Sea. Both are rich in calcium carbonate, which is capable of binding with two molecules of Hydrogen, giving it twice the binding capacity of sodium bicarbonate. When molecular weights are considered Ostrea is 150% more effective.
Ostrea’s unique complex honeycomb structure means that only cows suffering from acid loading are targeted. This prevents over buffering to ensure the rumen pH stays within optimal levels. Its complex structure also provides long-term protection throughout the day giving you peace of mind.
Ostrea is extremely soluble meaning once it has finished buffering Ostrea becomes a rich source of calcium, essential minerals, and trace elements which are all available to the cow.
