  • (v. i.) To bring forth young; to produce offspring.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The experiment was conducted on 3 groups of calves.
  • (2) These calves had hemagglutinating antibodies against P. hemolytica before exposure.

  • (5) Calves were tagged in the right ear with the green certified preconditioned for health (CPH) tag of the American Association of Bovine Practitioners.
  • (6) Calves showing signs of pneumonia had low levels of IgG1 (45-5 per cent had less than 8 mg per ml compared with "now-pneumonic" calves which had relatively high levels (only 9.5 per cent had less than 8 mg per ml).
  • (7) Calves were fed milk replacer twice daily while housed indoors in wooden-slatted floor box crates (metabolism cages).
  • (8) The results presented in this paper show that chronic lymphatic fistulae can be established successfully in fetal calves to give access to recirculating lymphocytes.
  • (9) One hundred and forty six calving interval records were built up from 64 N'Dama cows maintained for 3.5 years under a high natural tsetse challenge in Zaire.
  • (10) Although they were born at different periods of the year, the calves in all three groups had similar bacterial loads in their noses and tracheas when they were 1 day old (P greater than 0.05).
  • (11) Those findings suggest that CCN in calves is caused by thiamine deficiency and that the blood thiamine levels cannot be used for diagnosis of CCN.
  • (12) Examination of cattle faeces demonstrated that six-month-old calves excreted moderate numbers of N battus eggs in June and July, thus contaminating next season's sheep grazing.
