Calving Review January 27th in Carey & 28th in Arco


Bovine Obstetrics for Livestock Operators

By Chad Cheyney, Extension Educator

Dr. James England, of the University of Idaho Caine Veterinary Center will present a hands-on review of calving on Tuesday, January 28, 2014, at 9 AM – Noon in suite 203 of the Arco Butte Business Incubation Center.  The program will include a review of normal calving sequences in cows and heifer, as well as a demonstration and review of mal-presentations.  Based on a normal presentation we will review when and what interventions are appropriate, and when to call for professional assistance.  In addition we will review early post-natal care of the calf, including the use and care of colostrum.  Time permitting, we will discuss necropsy of the early post-natal calves and prevention and treatment of scours.

 

The program will also be presented on Monday January 27th at 1:00 PM at the Carey Community Center.
