[QUOTE="eric, post: 108932, member: 7"] Dun, I know you AI your cows, but how many breeding age bulls do you have, either for clean up or actual breeding? If only one breeding age bull, do you seperate him? Reason for asking: I am planning on keeping 3 calves, born in March '05, for additions to herd. I have a bull, who is breeding all my other cows (9) at this time. When I wean the calves in October/November, my plan was to keep the calves in a smaller pasture until next spring, at which time the cows should have their next calves and the '05 calves should be ready for breeding. What would be more beneficial.....keeping the (3) calves in the small pasture, by themselves, away from the bull and their mamas.....or putting the calves back with the cows after a couple months weaning period and putting the bull in the pasture by himself?
