Guiding Questions
When the cow gets to the parlor, what happens? Their teats are sprayed with an iodine solution to clean them. Then the teats are stripped to check the quality of milk and get her ready to be milked. The teats are wiped with a towel and the units are placed on the cow.
What temperature is a cow’s body temperature? What temperature do we chill the milk too? Cow’s temperature is 101 degrees and we chill the milk to under 40 degrees.
What is their bedding made of? Dried manure. The manure liquids are separated from the solids. The solids are then dried for bedding.
Why can cows eat feedstuffs like corn silage and hay? Cows are ruminant animals, meaning they have four compartments to their stomach. Because of this, they are able to digest their food by swallowing it, then through regurgitation they chew their cud and re-digest it.
How is Cupcake being fed now? She is now old enough to drink her milk out of a bucket (instead of a bottle) along with eat some grain and drink water.
How do we prepare all those bottles? Nipples and bottles are sanitized in a big bath. We then use a milk filler to fill multiple bottles at once. Then we put nipples on the bottles and sanitize them. Bottles are delivered by a cart. At one day old calves are trained to drink.

Objectives
- Identify what EID technology is on the farm and how it works
- Explain how the calf is cared for after birth
- Complete the liters to pounds math problem
- Learn about their adopted cow and calf.
Guiding Questions
How is your cow identified on the farm? Through a number assigned at birth.
What is a female bovine called before she has a calf? Heifer
Where are the cow’s health records kept? Through the help of an EID the records are kept electronically just like in the doctor’s office.
What is the first milk from a mammal called? Why is it important? Colostrum, it helps the calf establish an immune system and get a good start in life.
How is the cow and calf cared for? They are monitored before, during and after birth; and helped if they become ill. Their health records are carefully taken and monitored. They are fed and watered daily.
How much did the calf weigh? 73 lbs
What is the purpose of the calf nursery? To closely monitor the new born calves as they adjust to life, and easily feed them their colostrum. The nursery is kept around 80 degrees to keep the newborns comfortable. This is especially important during our cold South Dakota winters.
