Winter calving requires diligence
Winter calving can lead to health
risks for the newborns, North Dakota
State University Extension livestock
specialists caution.
This winter's heavy snowfall and
dangerous wind chills have created
calving conditions that are difficult to
manage and put the ears, feet and life
of newborn calves at risk. However,
calving indoors also has its draw—
backs.
"When calving indoors, and with a
number of animals producing heat and
humidity, the temperature changes can
produce poor air quality, leading to ef—
ficient transmission of potential
pathogens and increasing the risk of
neonatal calf diarrhea or pneumonia,"
says Gerald Stokka, NDSU Extension
veterinarian and livestock stewardship
specialist.
Newborn calves have two internal
mechanisms to help them cope with
cold weather.
First, calves are able to shiver,
which is the involuntary muscle
movements designed to increase
warmth by expending energy.
The second mechanism is the
nonshivering response that allows
fat to be used to increase the calves'
metabolic rate by two to four times
the resting rate to help them cope
with colder temperatures. This spe-
cial kind of fat is known as brown
fat. It is readily available to the
newborn to provide energy to cope
with the sudden change in the calf's
environment at birth.
"Calves born to properly fed dams
come equipped with this remarkable

- It can be a snap to remove burned—
on food from the bottom of a pot or a
frying pan. All you have to do is sprin-
kle in some baking soda and add hot
water. Let the mixture sit overnight. In
the morning, add a dash more baking
soda and scrub the residue away.
Got dirty floors? Make sure you
aren’t throwing good effort into a
dirty mop. You need a second buck«
et filled with rinse water, then follow
this pattem: Clean mop in water with
cleaner, mop a section of floor, rinse
mop in plain water, go back over that
section, rinse mop again. Repeat.
- “I like strong tea with no milk. My ,
husband drinks black coffee. The cof-
feemaker and our mugs get stained
over time. About monthly, I ‘brew’ a
pot of hot water, but I put a dishwasher
‘pac’ in the carafe. The hot water dis—
solves the cleaner, making the coffee
carafe easy to clean. Then I use the
detergent water to clean all the mugs. It
works like magic.” —T.L. in Missouri
In time for tax season: Don’t over-
look the value of opening and con-
tributing to an individual retirement
account to reduce your tax bill. Con-
tributions need not always be made by
Dec. 31 to count; it’s possible to open
an account as late as tax-filing day on
April 15, and it can still count against
your 2018 taxes.
To check for toilet leaks, add a few
drops of food coloring to the toilet
tank. If, without flushing, you see the
bowl water start to change color, you I
know you have a leak.

cold-coping mechanism," Stokka says.
The newborn calfs ability to cope
with cold weather means the calf
needs to rise quickly after birth and
find its food and life source through
the dam's colostrum. Colostrum is a
form of milk that mammals produce in
late pregnancy.
It contains energy, protein, fat and
vitamins, plus antibodies to protect
newborns against disease until their
own immune system is totally func-
tional.
Calving ease and excellent mother-
ing ability are critical to the calf‘s abil-
ity to stand and nurse quickly. In
colder temperatures, calves born with-
out some environmental protection or
born to poor mothers with poor-qual—
ity colostrum will be at greater risk for
infection from disease-causing
pathogens.
"These may be pathogens that
cause calf scours or pathogens associ-
ated with respiratory disease," Stokka
says. "In either case, the pathogens are
simply taking advantage of a calf with
a compromised immune status."
To determine whether a calf has
nursed, observe the dam's udder and
teats for evidence of nursing and feel
the inside of the calf's mouth. A calf
with a cold mouth has not nursed and
needs attention.
Stokka advises that if calving
outside this winter, extra bedding is
necessary as protection from the
wind. However, cows delivering
calves usually leave the herd and
find secluded locations for giving
birth, so producers need to be

extra-diligent when looking for
calves that are cold and slow to get
up.
These calves may need some type
of additional heat source and supple-
mentalcolostrum. This may mean the
newborns need to spend a few hours
in a calf "hot" box or just in a warmer
environment that's out of the wind.
In some cases of severe hypother—
mia, dry heat may not work well
enough and a warm-water bath is nec—
essary.
"However, supplemental heat alone
will not be sufficient to warm a calf,"
Stokka says. "The calf must receive
colostrum."
The dam's colostrum is optimal.
The next best options are frozen stored
colostrum or one of a number of com-
mercial colostrum substitutes. The
commercial colostrum substitutes
need to contain a minimum of 100
grams of immunoglobulin (IgG) per
packet. lgG is an antibody absorbed
through the calf‘s small intestine and
provides protection against disease—
causing pathogens.
Cold stressed, immune—compro-
mised calves also may require a little
extra care with vaccination proto—
cols. In populations of immune-com-
promised calves, a significant
number of calves may not respond
adequately to vaccination proce-
dures. Booster doses, which are the
second and third doses given within
a defined time frame, may be impor-
tant this year to prevent respiratory
disease during the summer and fall
weaning season, Stokka says.
