[QUOTE="Hogfarmer10, post: 1793993, member: 41451"] Another option (albeit more expensive) would be divide the herd in half. Put your “better” 25 together, breed them, while your “stunted”/ smaller ones are still being fed/ getting grass and hopefully increasing their body condition. Then breed those a little later. That would give you 2 defined calving cycles, smaller amount of cattle to be on calf watch per time, and you could get by with just 1 bull. I’ll vote with either a Hereford or a Gelbvieh. [/QUOTE]
