[QUOTE="jnowack, post: 225248, member: 3954"] I get your point and I don't tolerate cows that don't do their job. However, I quit creep feeding for a couple years and did not see much difference in weaning weight but weaning time was a lot harder on the calves because they were not used to eating feed. We had more sick ones and it hurt the yearling weights on our bulls because they didn't gain much the first couple weeks post weaning. Now I creep the early fall calves pretty heavy. After I turn the cows out on grass in the spring I quit creeping until about 30 days before I get ready to wean a group just to get them started. [/QUOTE]
