Now that we have discussed how to choose a family milk cow, we are diving into how to keep your cow healthy the natural way. If approaching natural livestock care seems overwhelming to you, you will definitely want to join us for this episode because Joshua does an amazing job of explaining his holistic approach in simple terms. We address the most common fears cow owners have: mastitis, parasites, antibiotics, supporting the overall immune system, and more. As a farmer raising grass-fed A2A2 dairy cows in a holistic way, Joshua is a wealth of knowledge on raising the healthiest cows possible.

In this episode, we cover:

  • What A2A2 means and why it matters
  • Reasons why you might cull a cow when building your herd
  • Grass-fed genetics are more important than you think
  • Exploring some root causes of mastitis
  • The ramifications of using antibiotics in your cow
  • Simple and effective ways to treat mastitis at home
  • How to boost your cow’s immune system naturally
  • What minerals cows need and why you want to mix them yourself
  • Top three areas of health to assess your cow’s overall wellbeing
  • Beneficial and harmful grasses and forage for cows
  • Treating and preventing parasites naturally
