Do you live in the north? Is this a thread about year round calving? Do you know your production cost? I realize you have land given to you so this is probably pointless talking to a young kid who does not know when to be quiet. Not everybody gets a trophy in life. Every year in February the posts start with dead calves, mud, frozen ears, thin milking cows, heifers not rebreeding and so on. Just stick around and look at the patterns. On a limited acreage operation with more explosive grass growth curves, it is just silly to not manage the cowherd cohesively and utilize the seasonal fluctuations with the production cycle of the cow. But I guess letting calves be born in grass in late spring just gives me too much time to be rude to people like you. I got the rest of winter so get used to it.
