[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 977265, member: 968"] Sometimes a 3-yr old can be the hardest ones to get bred, because they can be the thinnest at calving. They are in my herd. My 2-yr olds are in great shape when they calve & get rebred but by the time they wean off their calf, they are my thinnest. They recoop some of their weight thru winter, but are still my thinnest when they have their 2nd calf. Whether she stays in your herd, simply depends on if you don't care when your cattle calve. There is no law that she has to have a calf every 12 months. Just good management. I calve spring & fall. I have been know to slide one into the next season, but that gives them a bad strike against them. 2 Strikes your out around here. [/QUOTE]
