Hey folks,
I am new to the forum and have a question for you. I am in south Siberia, lots of snow, plenty cold, but starting to warm up a bit. First winter for me with hereford heifers, calving planned for late may-june. So my question is this, recently, after the weather warmed up I noticed the pink spots (skin) on my animals, and saw them rubbing against trees and stuff. I assumed that they started to shed the winter fur, but was not sure if they usually do that that early while temps are still freezing and about 1,5 month of winter ahead, or should I be worried?
Thanks in advance for the imput.
