[QUOTE="Craig-TX, post: 20485, member: 39"] A year round calving season is very common here. I’m not saying it’s the only way that’s right, but it’s served us well for many years. Like a lot of other management decisions there is often more than one right way, each having its upsides and downsides. I might change things down the road, but for us, for now, it’s the way to go. It does smooth out cash flow over the year and it does spread your market exposure. Selling your whole calf crop at one point in the year can be a double edged sword. You might hit a home run, but you might miss. Working calves through the year isn’t that big of a deal. You just catch them now and then and work the ones that you haven’t gotten to yet. There’s a whole lot of other factors to consider. Again, I’m not dogmatic about it but don’t let anybody tell you one way is right and one is wrong. It all depends on your climate, logistics, size, goals, marketing opportunities, schedule, etc. Craig-TX [/QUOTE]
