I know there are quite a few people on here who have a large number of cows.  We've been expanding our herd and with that expansion we need some more shelter for early born calves(January and February).  I'm located in Central Illinois so weather and wind can really be harsh(like right now for example).  What I'm wondering is what kind of Calf Huts/shelters do you guys use and what works the best?  Thanks in advance.

just put up a port-a-hut last week. 12 x 21 for 1400.Quoted 10x14 for 975. Their located in Iowa but have local dealers. I sure you can go cheaper, seen self built and underground fuel tanks cut in half, but I didn't want to crouch down while in it, and can use it for sale cattle in fall when all my other pens are full.
