[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1714968, member: 24027"] Excellent response, [USER=25884]@farmerjan[/USER]. I agree with having them preg checked so you'll know if/when and can plan accordingly. If one is already in her 2nd trimester, I'd switch to Plan B, don't fatten her, and let her calve. Your vet can also pelvic measure to give you a better idea whether to anticipate problems. Obviously, you wouldn't know the calving ease of the bull, but if she scores 132, you know you'll probably have to pull, regardless of CED. An alternative to having heifers spayed, is adding melengestrol acetate (MGA) to the feed, which suppresses estrus. [/QUOTE]
