Product
Di-Vetelact Nutritional Milk is manufactured in a food grade SQF certified facility under quality management systems. We use only premium quality Australian and New Zealand dairy ingredients. So you can be assured it is safe and high quality.
Our formulation was developed by Mike Sharpe, a world leader in advanced medical nutrition.
Mike oversaw the development of successful pharmaceutical nutrition products such as Danone Aptamil Gold and De-Lact Infant Formulas.
He applied the same superior standards to development and implementation of Di-Vetelact that we continue today.
Di-Vetelact Nutritional Milk for Animals is our flagship product and has been sold consistently in Australia for over 45 years. Like all great products on the market this product has undergone some improvements over the years responding to availability of ingredients, research and studies in animal milk composition and variability.
All our ingredients are sourced from Australian suppliers under strict product certification in accordance with Australian Agriculture Bio Security laws. Our premium dairy ingredients are all sourced from Australian and New Zealand dairy farms.
Di-Vetelact Nutritional Milk is easy to mix and has a smooth consistency that tastes great. This is the result of our excellent formulation, manufacturing and premium human grade ingredients. Animals love the taste so will take to it well. Di-Vetelact makes it easy for the carer to provide consistent and ongoing nutrition through all stages of infancy and life.
How to Use
Di-Vetelact Nutritional Milk has always recommended Dilution A - 60mL per 1 scoop of powder. This dilution is suitable for all mammals and marsupials from infancy and is recommended for any animal starting Di-Vetelact.
For animals with higher energy needs, after 24-48 hours, we recommend progressing to a more concentrated Dilution B - 40mL per 1 scoop of powder. This includes puppies, kittens, fawns, rabbits and mice. Full details are listed on the product packaging or can be found on our feeding guide pages here on the website.
On our Marsupial feeding guide, we specify 4 graduating dilutions tailored to different growth phases.
