Effects of sex and age on behavior and weight gain in beef calves after abrupt weaning
The effects of weaning on beef calves of different ages were investigated. Forty male and 40 female calves were either weaned at 6 (W6, n = 40) or 8 (W8, n = 40) months of age. The vocalization activity and behaviors (feeding, lying and standing/walking) were observed during the first 3 days followi...

The vocalization activity decreased at a higher rate in W8 than in W6 from days 1 to 3. On day 2, W6 calves spent less time lying and more standing/walking than W8 calves (P < 0.05). The behaviors did not differ between males and females. The average daily gain after weaning did not differ between weaning ages (P > 0.05), but W8 calves gained more from 6 to 8 months of age. In conclusion, weaning distress was more pronounced in W6 than in W8 calves. W8 calves also had a superior growth performance during 6 to 8 months of age. The effect of the calves' sex was less pronounced. Therefore, it is recommended to wean beef calves later than 6 months of age.</description><identifier>ISSN: 1344-3941</identifier><identifier>EISSN: 1740-0929</identifier><identifier>DOI: 10.1111/asj.12285</identifier><identifier>PMID: 25411066</identifier><language>eng</language><publisher>Australia: Japanese Society of Zootechnical Science, Jan. 1999-<Apr. 2003></publisher><subject>Age ; Aging - physiology ; Animal behavior ; Animals ; average daily gain ; beef calves ; beef cattle ; behavior ; Behavior, Animal - physiology ; body weight ; calves ; calving ; Cattle ; Cattle - growth & development ; Cattle - physiology ; Cattle - psychology ; distress ; Female ; females ; growth performance ; Male ; males ; Sex Characteristics ; Stress, Psychological - physiopathology ; Stress, Psychological - psychology ; vocalization ; Vocalization, Animal - physiology ; walking ; Weaning ; weight gain ; Weight Gain - physiology</subject><ispartof>Animal science journal, 2015-03, Vol.86 (3), p.345-350</ispartof><rights>2014 Japanese Society of Animal Science</rights><rights>2014 Japanese Society of Animal Science.</rights><rights>Copyright © 2015 Japanese Society of Animal Science</rights><lds50>peer_reviewed</lds50><woscitedreferencessubscribed>false</woscitedreferencessubscribed><citedby>FETCH-LOGICAL-c5055-fccb0bcbd34b2040b86a5f930616f13fbda987c622240ad7f2e5b8259f6bf38b3</citedby><cites>FETCH-LOGICAL-c5055-fccb0bcbd34b2040b86a5f930616f13fbda987c622240ad7f2e5b8259f6bf38b3</cites></display><links><openurl>$$Topenurl_article</openurl><openurlfulltext>$$Topenurlfull_article</openurlfulltext><thumbnail>$$Tsyndetics_thumb_exl</thumbnail><linktopdf>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/pdf/10.1111%2Fasj.12285$$EPDF$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktopdf><linktohtml>$$Uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111%2Fasj.12285$$EHTML$$P50$$Gwiley$$H</linktohtml><link.rule.ids>314,776,780,1411,27901,27902,45550,45551</link.rule.ids><backlink>$$Uhttps://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25411066$$D View this record in MEDLINE/PubMed$$Hfree_for_read</backlink></links><search><creatorcontrib>Lambertz, Christian</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Farke‐Röver, Antje</creatorcontrib><creatorcontrib>Gauly, Matthias</creatorcontrib><title>Effects of sex and age on behavior and weight gain in beef calves after abrupt weaning</title><title>Animal science journal</title><addtitle>Animal Science Journal</addtitle><description>The effects of weaning on beef calves of different ages were investigated.
