[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1736957, member: 28532"] Location is SE Illinois, listed to underneath the name/profile pic to the left of the comments. Where are you from? We had two hard rains followed by high wind gusts and 10-15 degree temps this winter, so icy cattle having to deal with mud before it had time to freeze. I've got a couple small barns but not all the calves got in out of the weather, lost a smaller heifer calf one of those days. Dad bought the tank houses for hogs 30-40 years ago, I guess I just as well utilize them. Bull issue has pushed me from all spring to spring/fall. I'll hold the bull this year to get them grouped again so I'll be all fall (Aug-Sept) in'23. After that, I'll try to work them back up by putting the bull in a month earlier every year until I get back to April/May. [/QUOTE]
