Reducing baby calf losses through clean calving and vigilance
Eldon J Hans notes that high calf survival hinges on clean, dry calving conditions and prompt colostrum intake. He advocates clean pastures, frequent checks for weak or cold calves, heat help for vulnerable newborns, and segregating calved cows for early disease detection and mothering. Continuous monitoring and timely feeding after 5 to 10 days support weight and milk production.
