[QUOTE="artesianspringsfarm, post: 1400305, member: 20360"] SOB, I did weigh him but it was about 18 hours after birth. I weigh in a sling on a good scale off an outrigger mounted on my ranger. As to the second, I am not 2nd guessing. I know for dang sure its a stupid thing. I have all the cows on my place exposed to a bull in July for April and May calving. However, this heifer jumped out of my yearling heifer group and in with the bull on May 18th. I thought about it and decided to let her go since she was one of my oldest to begin with. Besides her, I've had 7 calves in the last month, all from cows that I've purchased recently. I don't get why anyone up here thinks this is a good time to drop calves. All these cows will be dropped back by not being exposed to the bull till July like the rest of my cows. [/QUOTE]
