[QUOTE="BECCAJEAN, post: 368519, member: 6253"] before calving season gets under way each year go to your favorite vet supply or murdoch's farm store and get several packages of powder colostrum and keep it on hand for the unsure times along with a Mcgrath feeder I.E. tube. I recomend that once you have a new calf to tub it then you know that it has a full stomache and at that time you can sex it, dip the navel in iodine, & give it its first shot. Depending on the weather you might either put it in a calf hut with a heater or take it inside your house with you then place it back with its mother so they can mother up. These are all things that we do during calving season out here in wy. But we also start calving the firrst week of jan and are done before march. [/QUOTE]
