[QUOTE="novatech, post: 731874, member: 5494"] This time of year you are fighting an up hill battle. They should have been in good shape before calving. It is normal for cattle to go down hill a bit while nursing a calf. It is my understanding that your area had ample rain this past summer to produce adequate forage. If this is true then you are either over stocked, have poor quality forage the wrong genetics or a combination of all. If your cattle came into winter in good condition then you are not feeding enough, have poor quality feed, the wrong genetics, or the combination of some or all. Re-evaluate the entire operation starting at square 1, the grass, then move on up the line including management. [/QUOTE]
