[QUOTE="ENNOT, post: 309107, member: 3562"] Thanks Jeanne. We moved the heifer to a different corral at another place we have that's closer to home. I understand totally about bringing in bugs. I just wanted to give this girl a chance to raise a calf to maybe re-coup part of the lose. MoGal, here's my thought on the calf. Even though we were supposed to start calving on 1/10, this heifer was a little younger and was probably not bred to calve as close to this date(natural service). Something happened that caused her to abort when the calf was not fully developed. She was in a group of heifers we had bought last winter, so she was not rasied here. I am not sure if something she ate caused it or what. They've been on pasture, getting a little grass hay and we have a protein supplement for them to lick on. It's hard to tell what happened. I know one thing though, she'll leave. [/QUOTE]
