[QUOTE="cowgirl8, post: 1727748, member: 22072"] SO during snowmaggedon last year, our second calf heifers were put in a pasture to calve in March.. They spent most of Feb huddled around the hay bales covered in ice. We had a few calves during that time ( always have some early ones), so i was out there 3 times a day, not to mention i can see the herd around the hay from my living room. We had a bad rebreeding with these heifers on their second calf.....15 appeared open in the summer. Fast forward to 9 mo later from snowmaggedon, 15 second year cows calved within 2 weeks of each other. There was NO BULL in this pasture. There are NO BULLS bordering this pasture. If a bull had gotten into the pasture, we would have had to get him out eventually.. These heifers get the best hay so no one likes leaving this pasture.... SO, what the heck.... we got very nice calves out of this sneaky mysterious bull. Its just left us scratching our heads because to get 15 cows bred in just a week or two, that would have been very obvious for sure.. We were out driving around in Nov and i looked out into the pasture and pointed, "What the heck is that!!" it was the first calf, there should be no calves anywhere, its my vacation of sorts....
