Calves spend 16 to 20 hours a day lying down. Comfort during those hours of rest has a major impact on their development and resistance.
We provide practical recommendations for quickly and effectively improving lying comfort. Often, small adjustments are enough to achieve noticeable results.
Insufficient lying comfort leads to stress, reduced resistance, hoof problems, and reduced growth. That is why this is an essential point of attention in our rearing guidance.
A good lying bed is:
Soft, dry and clean
Enough space for the calf
Easy to clean
Tochtvrij Draft-free and well ventilated.en goed geventileerd.
