Kalf Kozie (includes 1 Grease Pencil)

Ranchers know that with cows calving in temperatures down to -45C, ear protection is absolutely necessary. Ensuring the comfort and protection of the calf’s tender, damp ears is a top priority. For livestock owners in mild, windy, damp climates, the weather can be just as cruel on the tender ears as the colder climates can be.

While the comfort and well being of the calf is our top priority, frozen ears can cause a loss of 10-15 cents per pound at sale time. While that may sound minimal, a realistic look at actual costs associated with calves getting frozen ears shows a significant loss! With an average loss of 10-15 cents per pound on the sale stand, 50 calves with a loss of $80 a calf quickly turns into $4,000 of losses.

Kalf Kozies are designed with stretchable fabric and an adjustable neckband equipped with rust-free, heavy-duty snaps to easily adjust for smaller or larger calves. We offer a true “one-size-fits-all” product that does exactly what it claims! We use the Kalf Kozies on our Simmental calves with no issues.
