Bovine colostrum is better than no colostrum at all, but you would be better finding one that is specifically aimed at equine.

Contact local breeders. Someone near you may have some frozen.

Alternatively, get your vets to order in a product called "Seramune", which is an oral equine IgG supplement.

Thnak you Jos! The others state they are FOR equine use, but are bovine based. I will check around.
