[QUOTE="ArmyDoc, post: 425545, member: 6832"] I've been reading about grass-fed beef operations. One of the recommendations is that you time your breeding season to be "in tune" with nature and keep the breeding season short. The reasoning is that by doing so, your calves will be born a the time when the cow can recondition after the winter on the green grass before the calf arrives. Do you agree with this? I live in Georgia. I get the impression this applies more for northern climates whose winters are harsher than ours. But if I wanted to do this, when should I plan on breeding in order to be "in tune" with nature? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts about this. [/QUOTE]
