Just got back from my cows this morning, 2 week old calf lying dead nothing obvious why, just looks like it was asleep. This spring we have averaged just short of £1100 for these calves at 10 to 12 month so it’s a hell of a loss, spoilt my effing day. That’s the problem with sucklers imo if you lose a calf for any reason it’s a hell of a financial loss and therefore I find more stressfull than losing a sheep. Generally if you lose a lamb you can grab a spare and set it on but with a calf it’s a lot more difficult.
