Any one tempted .
You must be joking! Mud everywhere here.Any one tempted .
I had a jersey calve outside in early February. Next day was sleeting, windy, pretty damn horrible. I hunted everywhere for the calf and eventually found it curled up under a bit of hedge, fast asleep. I roused it, it stretched and then found the cow and started feeding, perfectly happy!Once you have a sheltered field and cakves have a full tummy , all should be ok could put bale off hay out with them if worried
Dairy cows have been out around me for the last fortnight
Ewes and lambs will be going out so no probs
I let a couple of cows and calves out 3 weeks ago when weather was better. Getting hay and doing well. Would not want to many out.
Most of cows calving in 3-4 weeks time. Could do with a good spell then.
