Saskatchewan producers beat the winter with specially-created calf tuques
Calving season in the harsh prairie weather can be trying, but Betty Wyatt found a way to channel her desperation into ingenuity.
It started on a very cold winter’s day — is there any other kind? — when her son came in from the barn after tending to a set of twin calves.
“He was in frustration to no end,” recalled Wyatt, who has since retired and lives in Wawota, Sask. “He said, ‘Mom, I can’t keep these calves warm. As I’m warming one up, the other’s freezing its ears. What can we do?'”
