Abstract

In present article attention is payed to calve respiratory diseases, limb contracture from zootechnical point of view. The problems become at farms because of bad colostrum management, hypothermia of calves during winter and spring periods, inadequate milk feeding and mistakes in calve housing. The respiratory diseases are also frequent after weaning or after shifting from outdoor individual (group) housing to indoor dark and bad ventilated barns.
