[QUOTE="preston39, post: 87684, member: 1487"] ======= Jake, a thought for you to analyze. When we loose a calf..or breeding...in our production herd..we will get the cow ready for the market.......and buy one 5-7 mos. preg....this cuts our time loss by 1/2 to 2/3rds. We have had cows with a calf loss ...dictating sale.... where we have sold her and have a 6-7 month pregnant one back in 1 mo.....in 2-3 months we have a replacemnt calf to the one lost..with a small additional investment....in as little as 3 months. If the cow with the loss is worth keeping...fine...but she must be good enough....history...age...calving... to pay for 2 years of feed and care...otherwise....to micckeedees. [/QUOTE]
