[QUOTE="4CTophand, post: 609662, member: 9140"] i DONT KNOW WHERE YOU ARE LOCATED BUT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HAVE SEPT OCT CALVING SO WHY DONT YOU HAVE ANY WINTER ANNUAL GRAZING AVAILABLE FOR YOUR COWS???? With the cost of feed these days, feeding calves just isnt smart business. Plus if you need to wean Oct born calves in December you have a Mgmt problem-- time to sell sell sell . All you need to do is have some available winter annual grazing for your cows for 2-3 hours per day where they can get the Nutr req and be fed low quality hay for filler. thus you take care of your cows and they take care of their own calves without your intervention. You wean their calves in May with no creep and their weaning weights can help justify why you have cows anyway. My 2 cents T [/QUOTE]
