Subject: RE: Space requirements for weaned steins?


Central MN
Almost equally as important as bed pack space is group size. We have a yard that has about 3300 sq ft under roof probably close to 6 or 7000 outside lot. if we put 100 calves in that building the calves will group up and will only stand, ****, and crowd in a 20 x 40 area. once they hit that 300-350 they learn to have a bubble. I guess what im saying is you can have 40 sq ft per hd available space but if you put em with 100 hd it wont matter vs if you have a group of 5 to 10 or even 20 you can push that sqft down a long ways.....
