This week on the Super Smart Farm Show, it's time to head over to the dairy farm to see why calves are kept in little houses.
Have you ever visited or driven by a dairy farm and noticed small houses dotting the landscape? Those are calf hutches and farmers use them to help baby calves grow big, strong and healthy. They also keep calves warm and dry during cold and wet weather and offer them shade during sunny days. Then after a couple months, it's goodbye to the hutches and on to the next step in the calves' lives.
Join host Elmer and Bessie the cow as they figure out why calves live in little houses.
