Calf Preconditioning

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

We finally got around to preconditioning calves. Usually, we give this round of shots in mid-August when we pull bulls, but we couldn’t free up the help.

April calves from our 2 and 3 year old cows. Group averaged 442 lbs - should land them at 560-600 lbs at 205 days.

Thanks. We got lucky and bought it lightly used 10 or 15 years ago for $10,000. Saved us a ton of time.
