[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 149765, member: 852"] What reason? nurse what with the cow? :lol: ;-) I'd put three additonal calves on this cow after she calves, and leave them on for a good 5-6 months, if not longer. I have two nurse cows right now, Doc. I've done this for awhile and I know what I'm doing. One of them will be ready to dry off in two weeks, calving in February, the other is raising calves for me at the moment and won't be calving until next summer. A good nurse cow can raise 4 plus calves at once, and get a 2lb+ gain off each calf. And I can put them on and leave them on 24/7 for several months. It's how I make my cash, Doc. Between working on a dairy milking cows, and then coming home to my own little "herd", that's how I make my college money. More than that, I'm enjoying it and doing pretty well. Back to the main question. Any particular bulls you'd recommend, Doc? [/QUOTE]
