Alongside feeding, housing is essential for successful calf rearing. Housing can be broadly classified under the main themes of:
pen construction, pen climate and the situation around calving.
There are specific housing requirements depending on the calf’s age.
We make a distinction between the following categories of age:
|
|
maternity pen
|
- Calves from 0 tot ± 4 months
|
rearing pen
|
- Calves from ± 5 months to ± 24 months
|
young stock pen
