[QUOTE="gizmom, post: 1264569, member: 13402"] No he didn't get them all bred we had 20 opens so knew we had an issue we have never had that many opens, and they were all in the pasture with him. We now have a bull in with 15 of them, five went to town due to age or the fact they didn't breed when he was actually working, we know he was good going in he had a good BSE we ultrasounded early March had a bunch of opens but also had a bunch of bred cows in that pasture so figured just to early to call. We had seen the bull working so just felt we had some late. When we palpated we found we had a major problem. This will be the first time we have ever had spring calves but you do what you have to do. We sure couldn't afford to lose that many cows, we will probably market the cows with calf on side in the spring. Did I mention that this totally sucks. SOB we haven't made the decision yet we have two options take him to Auburn to see if there is a chance to have him collected or send him to the sale barn as a cull. Like I had said earlier we had planned to collect the bull so it might be worth it to see if they can at least get him to where we can collect him. The boss will make that call, I will go along with whatever he decides after all that is why I call him the boss. gizmom [/QUOTE]
