[QUOTE="EAT BEEF, post: 584202, member: 7761"] I start about the first of march and am mostly done by april 15 th,When we moved from Ohio we had to bump them up a little because I liked calveing about april 1 to mid may in that climate.In Oklahoma they just don't seem to get that good of a start if they calve after april 15th and like Dun said the heat can cause problems getting them breed back starting here about mid june.In a perfect world everything would calve the first twenty days of march.I do run the bulls most of the summer though,but any thing that doesn't preg check close to are calving window goes to town.Alot of people seem to like fall calving here and I guess that makes sense if your running them on wheat pasture,but other wise I think the supplemental feed would cut into your profit to much.I don't like to feed mature cows much hay or cake unless it snows and that doesn't happen that often in this part of the country.
