[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1018296, member: 18945"] That's one of the better BCS articles and well illustrated. Last one I looked at was about beef cattle, but they used a Holstein for their pictures. So--He's only got about 60 days to achieve a 5 or better--her last trimester has already begun [u]if[/u] she's 7 months bred. [u] Shawn has his work cut out for sure if the heifer is BCS much below 5. It doesn't mean she won't or can't have a live healthy calf, but it's going to hard on her and may be even tougher on her to produce enough milk and of course then there's breeding back problems if undernourished.[/u] [/QUOTE]
