1. Place the bolus in the bolus applicator with the rounded end pointing forward.
2. If right handed: Place yourself at the cow's right side. Grab the cow's upper jaw with your left hand and raise its head. Keep the cow's head high and a little towards yourself.
3. Gently guide the Bovikalc applicator loaded with one Bovikalc bolus into the cow's mouth. When you feel resistance gently guide the applicator over the tongue.
4. When the Bovikalc applicator is as far back in the cow's mouth as possible press the handle to release the bolus. Remove the applicator.

The Bovikalc bolus will disintegrate quickly in the rumen. The calcium chloride is available immediately, while the calcium sulfate will provide sustained release of calcium.
