[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 603788, member: 7509"] Here is an interesting combination calf shelter and windbreaks used in cold windy areas with few trees. I understand it can be moved fairly easily. [url]http://www.commonsensemfg.com/calfshelter.html[/url] It's 8 degrees F outside right now and the wind has been howling all day. I let the calves into the corral for wind protection tonight. This is their first super cold/windy night since weaning and they don't seem to want to go over to the woods. They tend to stay near the hay ring, feed bunk and mineral tub. I'm not quite sure how to get them over into the woods. Maybe I should move the Crystalyx mineral tub over to the trees? The cows on the other hand know exactly the spot in their pasture ravine most protected from the wind. [/QUOTE]
