[QUOTE="Ky hills, post: 1655030, member: 24816"] We had a cow like that, but I pulled her out and fed her out like I would any other beef. Before I separated here she had been with a bull for a while so I lutalysed her. We were pleased with the results. I think it turned out much better than if we had just pulled her out of the field and had her processed. In your situation, I agree with the comment above to sell the cow and get a good but somewhat discounted steer or heifer calf and feed them out. I think you will be much happier with the meat if you separate what you intend to process from the main herd and feed them to finish which ever you decide. It’s more work and expense but with the cost of processing and the fact that you are going to be eating it for a while, it’s worth it in the long run. [/QUOTE]
