[QUOTE="novatech, post: 434385, member: 5494"] We were in drought in Texas last year and before. I saw no effect on calves as long as cows were healthy. If the cows were allowed to be pulled down because of drought and not suplemented, then I could see were it would effect the calf before and after birth. Body condition score and general health will have an effect on the calf drought or not and conception rate on the cow for that matter. As far as drought haveing a direct effect on birth weight the answer would be no. [/QUOTE]
