Success in dairying through good heifers and care
Dr Bowiad stresses breeding quality heifers plus crucial feed and care. Calves should receive colostrum and stay with dam four days to acquire rumen bacteria. Milk and grain strategy follows colostrum with whole milk to three weeks, then skimmed milk, grain and hay. Antibiotics like aureomycin aid growth in trials, but milk replacers with skimmed powder not yet ideal. After four to six months, provide home grown seeds and minerals in balanced amounts. Heifers eat more roughage if high quality, delaying grain for cost efficiency.
