[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 440447, member: 6198"] you have alot of questions....cool :D When we moved here the bulls were out 10mo of the year. We had to gradually decrease the bulls time with the cows, by a couple of months. It was challenging it took a couple of years and we only had 50 cows at the time. Breeding season is what works best for you. For us March is best. They calve while on hay in the spring, when the grass comes the calves are able to handle richer milk. Our winters are really really cold. - 30, -40 Celicus cold. We find it hard to keep up the cows BCS during this time if we keep calves on the cows in the winter. We would then need more hay than what we already use. And that is expensive for us. Weaning for sale depends on your cycle and when you get the best price. [/QUOTE]
