[QUOTE="Caustic Burno, post: 506384, member: 694"] I always operate figureing 10% mortality rate for mature cows and higher for heifers when I retained them. I haven't lost but a few in the last couple of years and my loses have been much less. I have had some years much higher as well. There are so dang many things that can bite you, idiot cow, misrepresntation, new disease,, moldy hay, pine straw, varmits etc. Number one loss factor here after birth is Black Vultures and dogs.
