[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1302230, member: 9096"] DB, good to see you around again! I started feeding Dec 31st.. I was a little tight on hay but the weather cooperated and the cattle grazed longer than any other year. I'm currently feeding about 13x70 lbs a day for my 25 cows, 6 calves, and 2 bulls. I brought some of the younger animals up to the corral to feed them their own share (meddling!!) and they are really profiting from it.. hopefully they pay me back with a better calf next time around because of it. Since this thread was started, I haven't changed much... I still hover over them at calving time and make sure things go smoothly, especially with the heifers... The rest of them pretty much know what to do. About vaccinating earlier, I would be able to, but my "4 weeks before calving" number is before the first calf drops, and it's a pretty round number... How much before calving can you give the vaccine and it still be effective? [/QUOTE]
