[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1185035, member: 9096"] Those are good points, but one issue I'd have here is that breeding time would happen when it's icy out, and a bull mounting a cow on slippery surfaces is a recipe for disaster.. Also, a cow that gets bred late is going to put her into the bad weather... It's easier to control the start of the season than the end of it. It is nice to sell the calves when prices are best though. I am keeping some of my late (july/aug) calves over winter and will sell them in the spring. I also kinda like the idea of little ones running around all year, just don't like the idea of getting up at 2 am to check on cows for longer than I have to. [/QUOTE]
