[QUOTE="Jake, post: 129057, member: 4"] in my experience if they calf before 18 months will almost always be the most fertile in the herd and breed back every year. We have at least 1-2 a year that calve at between 12-15 months. They only one we pulled was from a heifer which had got her head down hill and immobilized herself by almost drowning on her body fluids so she didn't have the energy to throw the calf out. We have a vigorous culling program for calving ease; if they can't have it, they die. [/QUOTE]
