Preconditioning

Preconditioning, what is it? Well it can mean a variety of things but for us, it’s giving our calves vaccinations to help them build up immunity before we wean them. Approximately one month from now we will wean the calves and give them another round of the same vaccinations. These vaccinations are Modified Live 5 with presponse, Sommnus, Mycoplasma and an oral wormer drench.

At Meyer Company Ranch, cattle health is paramount. Preconditioning is part of treating the calves well and reducing stress at weaning time. Humane treatment supports their well-being and responsible ranching. We maintain a low-stress environment and handle cattle with care to ensure top animal welfare.
