[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1198850, member: 9096"] I also care about WW more than calving window, but I certainly appreciate getting it over and done with! The one heifer that calved in july bred back in 5 weeks this time.. I have no idea why she wasn't on time for her first calf, but she's doing a good job with it, as long as she keeps breeding back well I'll chalk it up to the bull that wasn't doing his job (he's gone now, he was 8). If she fumbles again she'll be gone though. A general rule of thumb for me is they ought to have calved by the time I'm releasing the bull again. Now that my herd is at capacity, I'll get more fussy about WW and breeding windows.. but first I have 3 prolapse cows to go which will be this coming year. I think that might be the last of the prolapses, which is a big relief to be able to start concentrating on other traits [/QUOTE]
