I have some cows that I am on the fence about...Should I keep them or cull them in your opinion?? Pics were taken a few months ago the day after the ice melted from the big ice storm we had. All three are heavy bred and weeks away from calving.
This cow is 6 years old, she is extremely pretty in person, sound, and clean fronted...However, when she had her calf last year, she took a pretty hard toll and has had trouble rebounding and getting conditoned again. If I keep her, I plan on breeding her to Carnac.
This cow is about 8-9 years old. She is extremely large framed, and last year she weighed 1635 lbs. She had a pretty good lookin heifer last year, but she is becoming hard to keep condition on. She is sound and big footed, clean fronted and good uddered, and has a great dispostion,but she is huge and hard to keep weght on.
This cow is 6 years old. I bought her open a couple years ago. I got her bred, but she lost her calf about a week after it was born. I AI'd her to Sting last year, but she didn't stick. She got covered by the clean up bull and is about a month away from calving. Should I go ahead and try to AI her again or ship her off?
