[QUOTE="TheBullLady, post: 69265, member: 173"] When the grass is short and it's been dry for months a lot of bred cows go to slaughter here. I can remember seeing a pen at the auction of 7+ month old cows that was going on a kill truck. There are some guys around here that do pretty well with the long bred cows.. calving them out and then sending the cows back. But you have to be careful of disease.. bringing in new cows all the time risks the rest of the herd. And you don't know what the cows are bred to.. so you need a decent pen or facility for calving problems, and they get a wild one every once in awhile that takes out a fence or two on her way to freedom!
