[QUOTE="dimka1980, post: 1670372, member: 41492"] Hi, My thinking behind calving dates were the grass, I will closely watch the weather and when we do see grass first, and might move the dates 2 weeks or so. Last year, I only was able to purchase bulls after August 15th so it worked out that way. As for predators, so far so good...did not have any issues, however wolves are the main issue that might arise, so I grow male and female guardian dogs "alabai" breed for that...next year we should have first puppies born on the farm with cattle and other livestock so they know who to protect.
