Proper Feeding of Young Foals For Bone and Muscle
Guidance on feeding foals to promote bone and muscle growth emphasizes oats as the base, with bran and occasional corn, feeding amounts rising from three pounds daily to larger rations as they grow. Include pasture or green feed when available, adjust grain texture from crushed to whole oats, and wean at five to eight months with a controlled separation method to minimize weight loss.
Milk fever treatment for high producing cows
A scrub cow is rarely in danger of milk fever, while high producing, well fed cows near calving are most at risk. Early symptoms appear hours after birth and progress to paralysis. A simple, rapid cure uses air injected into the udder with a pump, keeping the udder clean and sterile, then supportive care until the cow stands.
Straw shed for winter keeps calves warm and costs little
A simple straw shed built with ground uprights, poles, and boards offers an inexpensive winter shelter for calves and other stock. It should face south and can be fed directly from the threshing machine, with the top rounded to shed rain.
