[QUOTE="Otha, post: 1792958, member: 41397"] When we started trying to go from a year around calving schedule to a 90 day march 15-june15 we left the bulls in longer and sold everything that didn't calve in 90 days. We still do it that way. Turn out the bulls first week of June and catch any cows that haven't calved and don't look like that will that week and sell them. That way your cull cows are likely to be heavy bred vs open. We leave the bulls in for say 4 or 5 months. Pull them in the fall sometimes when we wean sometimes before. It's not perfect but selling heavy bred cows in June works out real well on a rainy year. [/QUOTE]
