DeFriez Calf Hoodies - keeping ears warm

1/15/2020

What an incredibly cold winter.  While it might be good for freezing pests and weeds, it isn't so good for newborn calves.  I've heard it said that a baby calf can be wet or cold, but it can't be wet and cold.  Of course they are born wet and even when they are up and moving their ears remain wet because that tends to be where mama keeps licking them.  In temps under 24 degrees, calves  younger than 24-36 hours will often get frostbitten ears, causing them to lose the tips of their ears.
So what are some options to keep their ears from freezing?

Getting ready for Private Treaty Sales

The past month has been Busy!  We have been bringing cows and calves home, vaccinating, weighting, sorting, and weaning calves.  By far the most challenging part of it all is trying to pick which cows and calves go and which ones stay... it's the same every year, we love these cows and they produce excellent calves, so to let any go is just tough!  But let them go we must.

    Howdy,
    Chelsea here, I'm the Ranchers daughter.  Growing up my favorite place to be was outside working with the cattle.  I earned my Bachelors in Animal Science; genetics and cattle reproduction were my favorite subjects.  While at school I meet my sweetheart and we spent the next 12 years building our family of 6 children and following my husbands education and getting his career going. Now we are back (HOORAY!) and I love helping on the ranch, in the office, working with the cows... and (to my fathers chagrin) some R
    ambouillet  sheep, miniature horses and chickens that we added for the kiddos. 
      ~  Enjoy!
