[QUOTE="dun, post: 1107704, member: 34"] For us the secret to good weaning weights is genetics and good quality (for fescue) pasture. The genetics are adapted to our forage base/(mis)managment. Feed won;t do any good with the genetics but the genetics won;t do any good with the feed. Had a neighbor, now out of the business, that maintained if he wasn;t pulling 10% pf his calves he wasn;t "callenging" his cows. He challenged them right out of business, but his weaning weights wre no better then ours. Never fertilized or limed, kept the pastures grazed to the dirt and would wean about 75% of the calves per cows exposed. [/QUOTE]
