[QUOTE="Devin, post: 34473, member: 366"] We put the a bull in with the heifers about 30 days before we turn the bull out with the main herd. This gets them calved out a little early most of the time and gives them some time to recover. We have had great luck with that for years. I would recommend trying to find a place if at all possible to seperate them before calving. We spent a little money on some fence in a small area near our working pen. It makes them easy to check at night (you don't have to ride over the whole place) and you can feed them supplemental feed without feeding the entire herd(unless you feed the entire herd anyway). This was a good investment for us as we retain some heifers every year. Don't know if I would do it if it were a one time thing. Just my two cents. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
