[QUOTE="Herefords.US, post: 784280, member: 3972"] I had one of those myself this year. When she calved in winter she had a retained placenta and never seemed to get really healthy even after spring grass came. I decided to sell her when her calf got old enough because, for one reason, I was sure she probably wouldn't breed back on time. She weighed 860 at the sale barn and her calf weighed 540 at sub 205 days. I had her preg checked, more out of curiosity than anything, and she checked ~4 months. I had some other reasons for culling her as well, but seeing that she rebred that quickly sure made me wonder if I did the right thing by selling her. In the past I've had first calf heifers who were in much better condition that didn't rebreed that fast. George [/QUOTE]
