Tips For Assisting Pregnant Cattle During Winter


Caring for pregnant pets is a bit more challenging because they have more needs that are sensitive and urgent. In addition, these animals call for extra attention and care from owners, especially during harsh weather states.

Here are some tips you must remember with pregnant cattle:

· They need protection day in and out.

· They should be given easy access to clean water and healthy meal.

· They must be placed in paddocks so you can monitor them easily.

· They need close and regular monitoring.

If you are looking for extra ways how you can make your pregnant cattle comfortable, here are things you can do:


· Apply relief cream to address their sore and cracked skin.

· Install a water bed or place a layer of the sand bed to relieve the cattle from having stressed hocks and knees.

· Use an absorbent bedding material.

· Provide additional space for resting and feeding.

· Keep up with the wellness checks with the vet.
