This plan outlines the construction and management details for a calf hutch. The calf hutch is framed simply with 38 mm (2") lumber and covered with full-sized panels of 9.5 mm (3/8 ") sheathing grade exterior plywood. Exterior grade Aspenite sheathing 12.5 mm (1/2") thick may be substituted. The calf hutch is an economical alternative to building a specialized calf nursery, and it can be much better than exposing young calves to humidity and infections in the main dry barn.
