Description
The first winter following weaning is a period of special concern in the growth and development of replacement heifers, particularly for those to be bred as yearlings. Sufficient growth and development of young beef heifers through the first winter reflect proper nutrition plus good health and sanitation practices that will hold sickness and death losses to a minimum.
