Nutrition and management of stressed beef calves. An update.
In an earlier report in the Veterinary Clinics: Large Animal Practice, the author discussed some basic principles upon which receiving programs for stressed calves should be based. Additional information has been developed in some of the areas covered in that report and in certain other areas. It is the purpose of this article to discuss some of this new information, after a brief review of the basics.
