Things have not gotten overly hectic yet, with cows generally calving in pairs at the moment. Having said that, the two weeks at the end of February and beginning of March are usually the busiest. Any time an opportunity presents itself the individual pens are cleaned out. Old-school methods are in use, so each pen is cleaned with a brush and pike and dry disinfectant powder scattered immediately. Where possible, I try to give cows, but more importantly heifers, time alone with their calves to bond.With the weather so wet outside, it seems even frogs are looking for shelter in the sheds. I found this one while cleaning the pens.
