Dr. Larry Boleman, Ex-
tension beef specialist, tells
us that calving time is the
most critical time in the
beef cow’s annual produc-
tion cycle and gives us a
few tips that may be help-
ful at this time.
-As calving approaches
separate and move expec
tant cows to clean, well
sodded and well drained
pastures.
-Check cows twice daily
if possible.
-Be certain that the ex-
pectant cow gets ten poun-
ds of total digestible
nutrients per day during
the last 45 days before
calving for a stronger calf
at birth and better milk
production after calving.
-Avoid conditions and
situations that create
stress at calving time.
-Sterilize calf "pulling”
equipment. Boiling calving
chains in mineral oil before
storing will sterilize chains
andpre entrusting.
-Watch cows for problem
deliveries and give quick
assistance if needed.
-Keep a good lubricant
gel, iodine and an antisep-
tic on hand.
-After the calf is born, be
sure it nurses in one or two
hours. The calf needs the
colostrum to help protect it
from disease.
-After calving, watch the
cow several days for udder
problems and to be sure
she claims her calf.
-If the cow does not shed
the placental membranes,
or afterbirth, in 36 hours af-
ter calving, call you local
vet.
-Watch for the acute, in-
fectious type calf scours
that cause heavy losses in
calves 7-10 days old; and if
necessary, call your
veterinarian for control
measures.
-After calving, be sure
the cow gets 16 pounds of
total digestible nutrients
with aHoniiatn protein 2nd
minerals
-Put first calf heifers in a
separate area and give ex
tra feed if you want them to
calve again at the same
time next year
-Plan your breeding
program to insure a
definite and limited calving
