[QUOTE="JWBrahman, post: 1274270, member: 18439"] Houston she didn't get bred until it cooled off enough for the bull. We cannot get any bull to work in the summer unless he is an F1. It can be in the 90's with a feel like temp of 115 on any August day. Ideally you want em on a tight schedule but the reality of our conditions are a limiting factor. I'm not one of the big boys who can rotate out 50 heifers because they didn't get bred in the hottest part of the summer. My input costs are very low so the cost of her not getting bred until the temps moderated was minimal compared to the gain of a replacement heifer with a good milk machine. Heck, if we could get the British and Continentals to work year round we wouldn't need Brahman.lol Thanks for the kind words, too. I'm starting to think the puppy dog gentle ones are worth two meaner than piss Brahman. BCG the mom had her rear end cocked up the way some cows do if they have had a hand in the rectum a few times and likes it. That old cow had been flushed more than once and you could probably Azi het in the pasture no problem. Heck, she even pooped as a courtesy in anticipation. Yep [/QUOTE]
