[QUOTE="dun, post: 392999, member: 34"] I couldn;t agree more! Until her calves don;t pass muster at weaning time, she breeds back on time and just goes about doing her job, I would keep her employed here as long as possible. Ol Granny (our Granny, not the one in the post) is 17. One year she raised a lousey calf. Lousey for her anyway. It wasn;t in the top 2-3 calves for that year. The nexct year bred to another bull her calf was the second best weaning calf. Until her calves are the bottom or she starts giving us any real problems, the old girl will be around. At her age the salvage value is pretty low so if we have to wack her we'll just grind her and donate the meat to charity. But I'm a softy for older critters that can still do their job. dun [/QUOTE]
