    Afew more individual pens would be a good idea using hurdles also try to get some colostrum from a dairy farmer better than the powder

    You've plenty of room use your hurdles to set up individual pens. Energy paste on the tongue helps. Get a dairy farmer to take some colostrum and bag up and put in freezer ready. Better than powdered version.
    Some number of twins!

      We used to have an injection that we'd put in the calfs tongue. Can't for the life of me remember what it was called.

  • @JohntyNich
    @JohntyNich Před 5 měsíci +1

    Would be worth getting a sled for moving calves. Did you have a bull pen free for isolation? Doubt you will get such a run of twins again but would be handy to get them separated while the cows and calves get bonded. It will be a lot easier next year when you’ve ironed out your teething issues…

    @jameswardle7977 Před 5 měsíci +1

    Get cows they said it’ll be fun they said 😳 fair play to you you did what you could we’ve got a couple of calf jackets after having experience like this. Just watch yourself with cows with new calves in the middle of the night with no one else around. There’s no one to hear you call for help this is coming from experience. Great videos showing the good and the bad.

      @user-qj2ge5hz4d Před 5 měsíci +2

      I wouldn't put a jacket on a wet calf, it's rare that you need jackets for Sucklers. Heat lamp should do the trick. Hope he survives, you've done your best , got him warm and got him fed. Twins can go either way.

    Was the extension unwound fully? If not maybe that’s why the breaker was tripping. Be lots of heat in a spooled cable. Check it’s not melted any of it
