[QUOTE="cotton1, post: 1299880, member: 14689"] Hey Nutmegger :wave: Sounds to me like you are doing an excellent job. Your post is interesting. From what I can gather you may only be a little tough on the ones that didnt breed back. If you cull those it will ease your mind and you will have a sure fire set of 2nd calvers I think. The heifers that are slow to breed back in my mind deserve some long suffering since they caught and calved on the first one like they should. Are they raising the calves at side to meet your standards? I say if they are put them in their own group if possible and give them a little extra time. If thats the case that mama cow is working to give you all she can. If you do that though, I would say put a time limit on the rebreed. If the calf at side gets to pulling on the mama too much it will be harder yet to get her caught. What ever you decide, best wishes.Welcome to CT, and thanks for sharing. Cotton1 [/QUOTE]
