@scott_macdon Sorry I just read it

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

@scott_macdon Is the predominant still available?

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

@JJasonFrench 150 without scrape alley is ideal

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

I know cattle inventory is high on farm these days and we are a bit over crowded. Space is King, especially in your close up pen. Let’s try to give these important girls the space they need. 150 sq/ft per cow is ideal. Lower your risk of metabolic instances #purinaproactiv #DE

@JJasonFrench Ideally 150 without scrape alley . I know proaction is 120 including scrape alley

We always want to maximize our space in our calving facility if possible. Space is KING when it comes to close ups and also moving into the milking facility. Here is a nice close up facility with space and comfort. #Purinaproactiv #cowsignals

#cowsignals in Manitoba. Some really good progressive dairy’s there and still looking to get better. 42 litre herd we were at and wanting to be more productive and efficient. The beauty of Cow signals and #dairyenteligen #PurinaProActiv

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

Even on mornings that have less humidity, cows will still avoid the sun. With some over crowding issues on farms these days we need to address these bottlenecks. Let’s get these cows lying cow and reduce any further lameness frustrations. #purinaproactiv #cowsignals

The ultimate fresh air seeking behaviour lol. Cows are awesome ! #Purinaproactiv

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

In the midst of this heat spell , I believe it’s important to evaluate what’s cows are telling us. Cows are great for seeking fresh air as seen in pic. Let’s help these girls maximize intakes in this stressful time. #dairyenteligen #cowsignals #PurinaProactiv

Another good cow signals session. This one involving the great team at Lakeland college in Alberta . A well run facility with an eager young staff that want to do better . Thanks for having us In . #purinaproactiv #cowsignals

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

A unique retrofit 3 lely robots barn I came across in Alberta. One return alley which I believe is great for our challenges with foot baths in robot barns . 42.5 litre herd . #purinaproavtiv

@Steenbergen_Jos @philCDNag @NorwellDairy @Promat_Inc @5281990hank What bedding are you using ?

[Darryl Smith @SmithDarryls]

Mats that are two months old and still hock rubs. Cargill/Purina cow signals company has many testimonials to help solve these issues . I am curious to hear some of your ideas to help producers with same problems ? #purinaproactiv #cowsignals
