Two new factsheets on the group housing of calves are now available in the Welfare Topic on Calf Housing. The Thematic factsheet (TFS) summarises the knowledge on group housing for calves, describing the benefits for calf behaviour, health and production. It also provides recommendations for successful group housing. The animal welfare indicator factsheet (IFS) provides key factors to appropriately manage group housing of calves as well as recommendations for inspection.
