[QUOTE="KMacGinley, post: 618458, member: 3175"] They've got nothing on sheep, they will decide to die if it is cloudy out. :) I used to calve during the first time of the year, went to April and May, got tired of dead calves, mud and working on slow calves. Finally decided that the advantages of calving on green grass with 70 degree temperatures and rarely having any trouble at all far outweighed any increase in weaning weights from having them early. Also, the cows can winter cheaper, only have to feed them good after Feb. 1st. They are still out on stalks right now. [/QUOTE]
