[QUOTE="dun, post: 1104049, member: 34"] We do one of 2 things. If we have a bull we run him with the bred cows till calving is about to start then pull him and put the replacments back with the cows. If we don't have a bull we wean the replacments for around 45 days and when we ship the steers we put the young heifers back with the cow herd. We've only ever had one replacment go back to nursing, that was after the cows had started to calve. We penned her with a steer we were finishing and finished and butchered her and sold the steer. That was around 8-9 years ago [/QUOTE]
