Description
Sharyn Munnerley has succeeded where so many others have failed -- she has made calf rearing simple. As Professor James K Drackley, of the University of Illinois' Animal Sciences and Nutritional Sciences department says: "the information in the book provides a step-by-step guide and covers all topics necessary for the for the proper care and management of young calves, from what to look for when purchasing calves to the importance of colostrums, to topics on feeding, housing, health and management concerns." The ABC of Calf Rearing will help everyone engaged in rearing calves (from large scale operations of more than 1000 head to hobby farmers who just want to rear 5 or 6 calves) to raise their livestock successfully and profitable.
