[QUOTE="Farmhand, post: 185024, member: 1292"] Our reasons are a lot like the others. We own a dirt construction business that builds terraces, waterways, and the like. It has a very small timeframe to get all the work done before crops get planted so we have to run hard at it. We need to have calving done before this so we can concentrate more on the dirt work. We have also split our cows into 2 calving seasons. We can get away with owning one bull instead of two this way. It also gives a second chance if one would come up open. Only have to wait 6 months for the next attempt at breeding instead of a year. We also can't move our calving to after dirt work because that's when my folks get the bull. We have half interest in the bull. All of this made the decision for us to calve in Jan./Feb. [/QUOTE]
