Your goal is to get healthy, in-calf heifers returning to the home farm.
Anexa FVC’s Young Stock Monitoring Service can help you achieve this.
WHAT’S INVOLVED?
Planning Session: together we develop a young stock plan for 20 months. A quick 30 minute appointment with your local vet will provide you with an Animal Health Plan for your young stock stating your goals clearly for your grazier.
Ongoing Service: we will work with the grazier and owner to implement the plan, including:
- Weigh heifers every 2 months and formulate a weight report for the grazier and owner; We have a portable weigh station, so the grazier only needs to get the heifers into the yards.
- Vaccination against lepto and clostridia (2 vaccinations as a calf and a yearly booster);
Regular, targeted drenching; and Trace element supplementation as required (e.g. Copper, Selenium, B12.
