Cattle Maternity Ward
Every spring the old feedlot on County Road 15 that once housed fat cattle, becomes a lot overflowing with the
new life of hundreds of baby calves.
Meduna Family Farms has been involved in cattle over many generations, raising everything from fat cattle to seed-stock. Now what started as boarding pregnant cows on our cornstalks for decades, has become a full service custom calving business. With facilities equipped with full cattle processing and handling runs and a hydraulic chute, as well as indoor calving pens and a milling area for the first hours of life, it is a regular cattle maternity center. During calving, the cattle are checked on hourly schedules and the whole family takes turns watching over the mommas. In 2017 we put up a 400 ft Hoop Beef building to house more cattle indoors. This building allows the benefits of sunshine and air flow while still allowing
protection from the weather. The cows love it!
For more information on calving or cornstalk pasturing call Isaac at (402) 277-6555.
