[QUOTE="Putangitangi, post: 1177903, member: 5956"] Got to feed them pretty hard-out through next mating. Mine are always in quite light condition - especially compared with cattle there - but I have very little problem getting them back in calf for the second time. It's got to be partly body weight, but must also be in the "rising plain of nutrition" effect too. The best conception rates here are just after I've given them all a pre-mating copper injection, since we have a secondary deficiency problem. Must make sure all that's right. I'm just about to start calving and my second-calvers are all still pretty light after winter. They'll pull through and get back in calf, but they look like the tank's only just above empty at this time of year (early spring). Maybe I'll drop a few more in number for next winter ... [/QUOTE]
