[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1755582, member: 19683"] Breeding at +-2years. Tried calving at 2years age, but that system didn't work out for us. Needs to push heifers more to reach a good size for breeding and they need a very good grass, minerals, etc., to get them back incalf soon and to keep them growing after their first calf. Calving them older worked the best to me. Fully mature, don't need to push with meal, come back inheat soon and get incalf at 1,5- 2 months post partum. Plus some breeds are recommended to be calved for the first time abit older, like charolais, blonde. [/QUOTE]
