[QUOTE="Silver, post: 1666869, member: 12520"] I don't know how your winters compare to ours, I think I am located quite a bit farther north than you are but maybe things are similar. Most people around here with smaller herds tend to calve March and April in order to have calves that can take advantage of the best the grass has to offer in a short growing season and have some good weight on them when weaned in October. I wouldn't trust a 220 day old bull calf to not be able to leave calves. We castrate ours at birth. I know you are trying to run on a different model than I am, so my thoughts aren't necessarily what you are looking for. [/QUOTE]
