Next Batch Of Three

Just as the calves that had been loaned out to a neighbor farm for the summer had completed the weaning process, we started the next batch of three with their own clips.
These are the two heifers and one bull from the show barn and they have now been outfitted with their own weaner clips.
These youngsters have been used to putting their head in the stanchions since they were born so the process for them is very smooth. All the hay, chopped apples and grain they want keeps them happy while the mothers are fed in a separate area.
In about 4-5 days these three will be moved away from their mothers completely and the weaner clips will be removed.
