[QUOTE="TR, post: 153524, member: 22"] Okay, so this cow would be bred at 135 days or so post calving. She is a 1000lb Simmi who weighs 1110lbs (very easy keeper) and is a heavy milker compared to the herfs, but not as heavy as a dairy cow. It took her 5 breedings natural service last year to take as a heifer. I observed her being bred in July, but calf didn't get here until 08/18, so she either took and reabsorbed, or didn't take until November. So with AI'ing her this year, I'm just wondering which would be the best way to go. Lute her, or pull her calf for 24 hrs for a more natural heat. Worth it to chance it? What are your thoughts? Her calf is eating hay and feed at the bunk, so he's not nursing as much as he was. [/QUOTE]
