A vet crew job on Simplot’s calf ranch at Grand View, Idaho, monitoring animal health and assisting with veterinary treatments and herd health programs. The day starts early with preparing milk, bottles and nipples for the morning feeding, feeding the calves with extra attention to any that need help, then cleaning the milk equipment, providing water and grain, spot cleaning pens and replacing dirty buckets. Through the day the crew receives and processes calves and runs health checks, which can include drawing blood, administering vaccinations and keeping accurate treatment records. The role works closely with management and veterinary staff and is built around animal welfare, correct handling and disease prevention. The posting does not state pay. Applications go through Simplot’s own careers site.
