However, he carries a blanket with him during calving season. When it's really cold, he wraps up the baby in the blanket and puts the baby on the floor of the pickup to warm it up.

I was too little to remember that. Guess you have too many for that to be an option.

We tag the babies with the last 2 digits of mama's tag. We tag our heifers when we preg them with the starting number the year they were born. <br />Good luck with the rest of calving and try to stay warm.
