[QUOTE="lucky7chief, post: 1190035, member: 7708"] We calve about 60% of our cows in the fall. Our two biggest reasons are calving in dry weather and better conception rates on our fescue pastures. We only give our fall cows good quality fescue/brome hay with no supplementation other than mineral. The cows do look a little rougher at weaning than spring cows but they gain condition quickly on spring pasture. We also like to maintain 2 seasons because bulls are spread over more cows and bulls always have dry cows to run with. We don't need a place to bulls by themselves. [/QUOTE]
