By Georgia Diaz


Congratulations, you already bought your first ever Irish red cattle. However, your responsibility does not end after you processed the papers and be able to bought one or two. The real challenge will be encountered when you are already tending or taking care of them. This is very important so they will breed the new batch of brood healthy. How to do them, here are tips that you have to take account.

They are needed to eat so they could survived and continue on existing. Being the parent of the animal now, you should provide grasses that will feed them. If you fail to do that, then you will end up seeing your cattle lying on the ground breathless and lifeless. They need foods and they can not survive without it, by the way.

You have to attend to the needs of their health as well. You must make sure there is no single sickness that will stay on them for a longer time. If you have no idea on how to treat the sickness, you can ask the help of the local veterinarian regarding to that. She is known to be the person who knows the problems and solutions as well.

Like you, they are prone to illnesses as well. They are prone to injuries as well since they have to exert the effort in strenuous exercises. And when they are engaged to the said exercise, it is fair that you check in on them if they have injuries. Otherwise, they will be impaired with their capacity to move freely and to leave without any diseases or illnesses.

One thing that will help them in avoidance with diseases is the fresh bedding. So it is a must that you keep them cleaned everyday. You should replace them in a regular manner to ensure that microorganisms will not lurk there that will attack your cattle. Also, kill anything that might harm them.

If you are raising female cows, then you should ensure that you are handling them carefully. You have to be gentle with them especially when the causes of mastitis is rampant that could even put the health of people in danger when they drank the milk of the cow having one. And always clean these milking tools.

Milking them is very important because they could be sick when it is not done twice a day, or once every twelve hours. If you fail to do so, then you will put them in a grave situation. Just like a mother whose milk is unconsumed by the baby, it will also pain them unbearably and ruthlessly.

You will also need the production of their kinds to be increased. That is why it is advised that they are bred every year, that will not only increase the production of milk. Even their species will be increased as well that will benefit their kinds. And will also benefit the owner who have raised them well.
