My Cows have had all their calves in the fall up till now, but a mistake on my part has made things dangerous for the health of my herd. The first calf of 2025 for our small-scale farm was born in the snow and he likely won’t be the last of the winter. I’m going to have to change my cattle breeding plan to make sure next calving season isn’t, potentially, so hazardous. Come along as I discuss my plans while ear tagging and banding this young bull calf.
