Preparing for Calving 2014



feeding cows hay
During calving season, we feed our expecting cows high quality square bales of hay. We feed the cows every afternoon to increase the chances of calving during the day.

We use straw to bed cows to keep them warm and dry during calving season. During the day, cows that are close to calving are near the barn to watch throughout the day.
