Early Grazing is Desirable: By the end of the third week grazing becomes an important feature in successful calf rearing. The earlier calves can be allowed out for grazing the better, providing the grazing is on short leafy pasture. Even in the first two or three weeks a rotational system can be often adopted by the sub-division of a spelled calf paddock handy to the shed. Do not set graze calves. Calves are very selective grazers and rotational grazing of young calves ahead of the dairy herd even while still being fed milk ensures maximum growth and their greatest chance of avoiding calf diseases and parasites. * * *
