    Housed 'em 5 oct last year, noticed a few of them a little tender on their feet about the 3 week mark but they hardened up and not a bother on 'em.
    If I had to choose I'd keep the cows out as long as I could.

    I'd be inclined to agree leave a them out, and with a bit of meal.

    Id leave them out for 2 or 3 weeks after weaning if i could.Less problems and better thrive.
