The problem

At calving, her calcium falls off a cliff.

A cow starts making colostrum and her body pulls out more calcium in a few hours than it does in weeks of normal milking. Blood calcium drops. Muscles stop working the way they should.

The ones that go down are the ones you see — clinical milk fever, and it can cost you the cow. The expensive ones are the cows you don't see. Subclinical cases don't go down. They eat less, clean out slower, come up short on milk all lactation, and never look sick enough for anyone to write it down.

What the bolus does

Calcium in her, working in 30.

Each bolus is 44 grams of highly absorbable calcium chloride — the fast-acting form, not a slow one you have to wait on. Completely available within 30 minutes.

It also acidifies the cow, which is what tells her body to pull calcium back out of her own bones. So you get the fast bump and the mechanism that keeps her there.

The bolus is coated so it goes down safely and doesn't tear up her throat. No fillers, no extras. Made in the U.S.A.

One bolus right after she calves, a second 12 to 24 hours later. That's the whole protocol.

We ran the trials

Fewer health events than Bovikalc.

In a 304-cow on-farm trial, 9% of cows on No B.S. had a postpartum health event — against 22% on Bovikalc and 26% on no bolus at all. Published in the Journal of Dairy Science.

Who we are

Our Policy is No Bullsh#t.

No B.S. was started by a veterinarian and a dairy nutritionist who got tired of watching professionals overcomplicate a simple problem. There is already enough worries in everyday life. Let's cut out B.S. where we can and make things simply easier.

Questions

Straight answers.

How many boluses, and when?

Two boluses, spaced apart. Give one immediately after she calves, then a second 12 to 24 hours later, using the No B.S. stainless steel applicator. The first one covers the calcium crash at calving; the second carries her through the day after, which is where a single dose runs out.

Is there an organic option?

Yes. The No B.S. O-Calcium Bolus™ is OMRI Listed for certified organic dairy operations, and it is beeswax coated rather than paraffin wax like most competitors. Same 44 grams of calcium chloride, same 30-minute availability.

What is actually in it?

44 grams of highly absorbable calcium chloride per bolus, coated so it is safe on the cow's throat going down. No fillers, no extras. Made in the U.S.A. That is the whole ingredient conversation.

What does shipping cost, and how fast?

Shipping is free on every order, every time — packs and pallets both. Orders ship directly to your dairy. Pallets move by freight, also free.

Do I have to use your gun?

No. These work with any standard bolus gun you already have. If you want ours, your first bolus order includes one free — it is applied at checkout, you don't need a code — and pallet orders include three.

What are the guarantee terms?

100% money back. If they don't work for your herd, you don't pay. No fine print, no restocking fee, no forms to chase. Email us and we take care of it.

How does pallet and bulk pricing work?

A pallet is 60 packs of 54 — 3,240 boluses — at $14,580, which is $4.50 per bolus instead of $5.00, and it includes 3 free applicator guns. Running 500+ head? Ask us about dairy-direct pricing.
