A passion for raising weanlings

Calves are gambolling through a bright and airy barn, jumping here and there full of boisterous energy. “That’s what they’re doing almost every day between 4 and 5 pm; they start to run and then just race up and down the full length of the barn for a few minutes,” says manager Dorthe Harting with sparkling eyes. “We’ve even asked our vet whether this was normal. He said, it’s perfectly fine as long as it’s fine with us. Young animals need to move, and it’s a sign that they are doing really well.” There’s nothing surprising about the calves being so lively – after all Dorthe Harting and her family are putting their hearts and souls into raising their weanlings.
