[QUOTE="Bright Raven, post: 1605766, member: 27490"] Weather = stress. Stress = lower resistance. A healthy calf Plus good vaccination program, they can usually take some weather. We get that kind of weather in Kentucky starting in November. It reaches a point that I make shelter available. It is interesting. About half the calves will not use the shelter. They do just as well as the calves that I see in the shelter. That says at least some don't need it. Maybe none of them do. [/QUOTE]
