Calf Hutches Shape Hillig Farm’s Efficient System
At Hillig farm near Waumandee Buffalo County the Hilligs settled on an orderly calf hutch system after two decades of experimenting. Hutches under a roof with a concrete pad cut calf losses from 30 percent to five yearly, easing management as cows move to a loose housing barn. A recent theft of six calves was thwarted when Rose Hillig tracked leads to a Lewiston sale barn.
