The Heifer Facility of Lamb Farms

On this

Intro
Barn


The heifer facility was purchased in 1985 from the Blew family. Many barns have been added over the years to support the growing number of milking cows.		1 = Transition Calves - freestall 2 = Transition Calves - freestall 3 = Prebreeding 4 = Bred Heifers - confirmed 5 = AI Group 6 = Bred Heifers 7 = Shop 8 = Bunks & Feed Prep

With the addition of this barn built in 1998 (top), the entire heifer facility now houses some 2,000 heifers.
This 6 row, outside feeding design maximizes space and is very cost effective to build. This barn houses bred heifers..
Manure from all barns is manually scraped into two storage lagoons where it is then irrigated on nearby fields.
The barns below are for heifers aging from 16 weeks to breeding age (around 13 months).
Several different barn designs have been experimented with over the years.
