[QUOTE="jt, post: 22814, member: 238"] some time back i read an article somewhere that discussed the problem of getting a 1st calf heifer to breed back on time. it said that many times they wont breed back until the calf is weaned. but this article said that if you will take the calf from the mother for 48 hours, the cow will most of the time start to cycling and breed back quicker. i cant remember at what age the article said to take the calf, but it seems like it was when the calf was 2 months old. has anyone out there tried this or know if this is indeed a fact. just wondering, because i have several heifers due and had a few heifers that calved last year come up late this year. thanks jt [/QUOTE]
