[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 257258, member: 539"] Yep, that will do it! It's a common mistake, and one I've also made. I learned that lesson the hard way the summer Dad turned me loose with feeding the cows. Dang those cows looked good but, come calving time, that fat was [b]not[/b] a good thing - I don't think we have ever pulled so many calves - although we came close a couple of years ago when I insisted that we corral the 2 year olds (so I could watch them) until they had calved. I think I was about 16 or 17 at the time of the first mistake, and plenty old enough and smart enough to know better at the time of the second mistake. :oops: Now we simply check the 2 year olds daily, and they go in the corral when they are getting close. I rarely make the same mistake twice - I'm too busy making new ones! ;-) :lol: :lol: [/QUOTE]
