3,300 hutches for shelter of newborn calves to supply the mega-dairies of Milk Source, the largest dairy operation in Wisconsin. The calves are brought here from eight dairies in Wisconsin and Michigan, and stay here from their first week of life until six months old. After that they are transferred to a heifer farm until they are two years old and are returned to their dairy of origin. All of the calves were conceived via artificial insemination.
This facility is Calf Source.
