[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1846074, member: 25884"] I have said for years that an older cow that breeds back and raises a decent calf can stay here for as long as she does her job and holds her weight. They get fed silage in the winter, and we run them often with 1st calf heifers or 2nd calvers. They get fed a little "better" than healthy mature cows in the 5-10 yr old stage... but they have given us some real nice heifer calves to carry on that longevity gene also. [/QUOTE]
