[QUOTE="Dusty Britches, post: 1665793, member: 1900"] I'm in central Texas and our last calf was born 2 weeks ago. I put out hay in the only wind break in the lot on Saturday. I checked on them yesterday. A 3 week old calf was fine, shivering a little but had some ice on her back. The youngest was laid up in the hay but I didn't see any ice on his back. He was not shivering when he got up so I'm guessing they are fine. We got 4" of snow last night and the highs have been in the 20's. Hopefully by Thursday it will warm to above 32. 20-30 mph winds are brutal, though. Wind breaks will be the key. My neighbor removed all of his wind breaks because he wants a nice clean place. Thankfully he calves in October. [/QUOTE]
