[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1715356, member: 25884"] Hey, good to hear back from you. I think that this heifer is a problem, but since you just kept her and she had a healthy calf, with the little of problems you had.... the thing is to see what happens next. If she has any other problems, culling is the smartest thing you can do.... get rid of difficulties. I assume you are going to keep the heifer calf. See what she does. Try to breed her maybe AI to a completely unrelated line to get away from the possibility she is inbred. She may go on and just breed and calve like she should. If she has problems, be smart and get rid of the whole line since it is not something you are trying especially hard to get a calf out of. How are the rest of your cattle doing? How has your summer been? So many places have had droughts and problems getting hay for winter, some places have had recent severe rain and flooding. We made about 2/3 of normal first cutting, but still making some hay now since we had late rains. "Freeze dried" hay but it is curing up nice. [/QUOTE]
