About 1 to 2 min after the kitten is out u will see the colostrums come out the queen (the Mother) will eat it in order to keep her new born from predators and also because she needs it to have enough energy for the next hours.

Thus answer is incorrect, what they are referring to is the placenta, in which the foetus had grown inside the queen.

Colostrum is special milk produced by the queen in the first 12-18 hours after the birth. This under normal circumstances provides the first immunity for the new born kittens. However there could be issues with mis matched blood groups in cats.

When does the colostrum come in on a horse?

There is no magic time. Some mares may start to drip in the last month or so. But usually once the mare starts to drip or 'wax up' birth will follow with in 24 to 48 hours. If you notice that she is losing too much milk you should contact your vet. She may run out of colostrum before the birth and it is vital that the foal gets colotrum.* *Interesting fact:There is a window of oppotunity for the foal to get the colostrum. If he does not get the colostrum within 18 hours or so his GI tract will not absorb it which will greatly diminish his chance of survival.

How long do you have to feed a lamb colostrum?

Colostrum is vital to give the lamb agood immune system. It is best absorbedin the first 24 hours of the lambslife. After that it is just digested. If thelamb does not get this it will not haveany immediate source of antibodies tofight infection, and scours or other problems.The best source of colostrum is of courseewe's milk direct from mum but that is not alwayspossible. Colostrum milked from anotherfreshly lambed ewe is the next best option. Ifthat is also not possible then fresh cow colostrumfrom a cow just calved will do. If that failsthen colostrum substitutes are available butare expensive and not as effective.Lambs should get at least one day (500ml) ofcolostrum fed in 6 to 8 feeds before milk replaceris started but any you can get into thelamb (even as little as 30ml) will help.Colostrum replacer is available (jumpstart) which can be used if no fresh is available and it is suggested to give a lamb colostrum for the 1st 4 days as this is what it would naturally have with its mother.It also suggests weight of lamb-amount of colostrum ratio . (look up jumpstart on google)

When the wax falls off a mares teats will she deliver soon?

Could be. This is a sign that birth is near. But sometimes a mare will 'wax up' and the milk will start to leak out. A little is fine but if too much leaks out the mare could be loosing the "colostrum". Colostrum is the first milk that the mare produces and it contains all the immunities for the new baby to keep him healthy. If it leaks out before the foal can drink it, he won't live long. They have to have the colostrum. If you think your mare is leaking too much colostrum call your vet.

How long must a calf be breast feed?

A calf should get colostrum within an hour or so after birth. Colostrum in the cow will be produced for the next 24 to 48 hours after the calf is born, but at eat time frame, the quality of the colostrum decreases, which means that if the calf receives its colostrum after 24 hours or more, its ability to survive, and grow into a healthy animal will be diminished. It's CRUCIAL that the calf gets his colostrum within a couple hours after birth, if he is not up and suckling (or has not been up and suckling) by the time you next check on mom and calf.
