[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 1178101, member: 539"] Most times it is because you are not feeding them right. A heifer continues to develop until she is around 3, maybe 4, years of age. Most people breed first timers to calve at around 2 years of age, but completely forget that it takes a lot of feed for her to support her growing calf, support her continuing growth and lactation, and still be in good enough shape to breed back to calve as a 3 year old. If the feed isn't there, somethings gotta give and it's usually her breeding back. [/QUOTE]
