[QUOTE="jkwilson, post: 117755, member: 969"] We didn't. Registered cattle, so we are sure of the dates. She was the oldest heifer, and all of the bull calves were cut within 3 days of birth. My eyes told me she was getting soggy and looking bred, but I KNEW she couldn't be. If I'd have believed it when she first started showing, we could have saved the heifer. We gave all of this year's heifers a shot of Estrumate(sp?) when we worked them two weeks ago. Cheaper than the $30 it cost to get the heifer hauled off in March. :mad: :mad: Not to mention the cost of losing a 14 month old heifer that would have brought $ even as a feeder. :cry: [/QUOTE]
