Hazell Mullins: It's not just the calves that grow up - how calf-rearing has changed
Hazell's calves with their jackets on
We are halfway through calving already on the farm; it is wild how quickly it passes after such a build-up. I had an interesting week as Philip Boucher Hayes came to visit the farm to discuss how calf-rearing on the farm has evolved over the past 20 or so years.Â
It was an interesting topic as I had never really sat down and really reflected about how things have changed over the past 15 to 20 years. Even in the last 11 years since I graduated, calf health has only gone from strength to strength.
