Last year I hired a bull who was on the property for about 6 weeks; he was the culprit! With the exception of the bull arriving a little later than I wanted (he arrived Aug 11th; I think Aug 1st would have been better), I'll be doing the same thing this year (unless I find a good buyer for the herd - see another thread I just posted).Jeanne - Simme Valley":2d4un3h0 said:Do you have a "calving season"? Or are they spread out quite a bit? Do you think the mature bull bred them or a older bull calf?
I sure would be checking the rest of my heifers.
As it turns out, 2 of my 4 heifers were bred by the bull. They seem to be doing reasonably well, though both they and their calves are on the small side.
