Can cow's milk be given to ponies?

Can cow colostrum or so-called colostrum be given to foals after the death of the mother mare?

The answer is yes, however

Mare colostrum provides immunity for about 26 days until the orphan foal's immune system develops

While cow's colostrum gives immunity for about 9 days

So you must pay attention
