Calving season is here—are you prepared?
A little preparation goes a long way in ensuring healthy cows and strong calves. Here are a few key tips to get ready:

✔️ Prepare clean calving areas with dry bedding and good ventilation.
✔️ Check nutrition and body condition so cows have the energy they need for calving.
✔️ Review herd health plans and stay on top of vaccinations for diseases like BVD and IBR.
✔️ Have a calving kit ready with OB chains, gloves, lubricant, iodine, and colostrum replacer.
✔️ Monitor cows closely for signs of labour and be ready to assist if needed.

Remember: Calves should receive colostrum within the first 2 hours to support strong immunity.

Good preparation helps reduce problems like calf scours, pneumonia, and difficult births—and sets the stage for a successful calving season.
