[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1385193, member: 25884"] I'd graft a calf on her and then put her back with your new bull and see what happens the next time. That dead calf could have been breech too and drowned or suffocated before she could get it out. I wouldn't let her go with no calf on her. The opposite end, if the rest were done by the end of Oct, then if you put her right back with the bull, and you don't put a calf on her, she should clean up and come back into heat a little sooner, breed back, and maybe back up a month so and get more in time with the rest. If she does, I'd keep her and try her for another calf. If pound cows were 1.00 lb then she would go right now. @ .50 we just put 2 young cows back with the bull that came up open and we just sold their calves. They will be 6 months behind the original group they were with and will stay with our fall calving group now. But if it happens again, they are gone. [/QUOTE]
