[QUOTE="DiamondSCattleCo, post: 153806, member: 2862"] My 2 cents: I think along the same lines as DPH. If a cow is preg checked and declared open, I'll still keep her around until calving time (just in case the vet messed up). If she doesn't drop a calf with the rest, then she's gone. I used to give animals 2 strikes and then they were outta here, and everytime I did it I ended up with issues somewhere down the road, so now they get one strike and they're gone. I use this rule for open cows or calves that are delivered dead. I'll still use the 2 strikes for malpresentations or large calves that need to be pulled. Rod [/QUOTE]
