Calf Rearing on Our Regenerative New Zealand Dairy Farm

Today we share our calf rearing system on our New Zealand Regenerative Farm.

We have been dairy farming for the last 20 years and our calf rearing systems have changed and involved through the years.

When you have good systems in place it really helps to make life easier.

We rear 50 heifer replacements for our dairy herd as well as a few bull calves that we rear for meat.

In our video we talked about the following products, we are not affiliated with these companies:

McKee Plastic 40 teat Caffeteria
Stallion Hay and Meal Feeders
Milk Bar Adlib 20


Hi, We’re Lance and Claire Mullin. We have five amazing kids and as a family we are trying to live a slow, self-sufficient lifestyle, growing much of our own food off our small farm.

We have owned our small dairy farm in Taranaki, New Zealand for 7 years. This year is the start of our journey to begin to transform our farm with regenerative practices.

We look forward to sharing our journey with you as we take our next steps into regenerative agriculture and our food growing endeavors. We'd love it if you subscribed to our channel, liked our videos and leave us a comment.
