JAKE & BRITTNEY LONG | LONG FAMILY FARM on Instagram: "We use a calf catcher to safely and calmly check calves right where they’re at — no penning up, no roping, no chaos. This lets us: • Look calves over early • Catch small issues before they become big problems • Keep stress low for the calf, the cow, and us Calm handling matters. Healthy calves start with good management. This is one of those tools that just makes sense when you’re calving on pasture."
