[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 759137, member: 7509"] That's a good point and might work. However as far as what I see I do not want my cows on corn at all. They might burn up the extra but they might not. Can young calves take all the milk they might produce? The hoof trimmer who took care of my bull says at high level dairies he may trim the hooves twice a year. My cattle are outwintered in the woods in a very cold climate area - I am not sure I want young calves going through a -20 or -30 degree F early January night. The main reason I want to further develop this spring calving/spring harvest system is that there is a market for the beef now. The processors are also easier to work with in the spring than they are when swamped with deer and every one else's summer grazed cattle in the late fall. I appreciate the idea and suggestion.
