Interestingly, we've noticed a potential cause of hair loss in certain calves, known as "veal drinkers." This condition, which can also present as dry skin and brittle hooves, is often due to a biotin deficiency. If you're experiencing unclear dermatological symptoms in your animals, it's worth considering this possibility.
