[QUOTE="cypressfarms, post: 656754, member: 2653"] Caustic, I would have thought you would have preferred your calving to co-incide with weaned calves bringing the most. I know you had posted before about running the bull with them year round. I try to calve mid/late winter to give me the option to start selling in May/June if the price is good. Normally by October the price drops. Maybe you don't have the same trends, but I know your weather has to be close to mine. The only downfall to this is the added hay/ryegrass needed through the winter months when moma is lactating. Just curious as to your approach - I know you have a plan, maybe I could learn something.
