[QUOTE="J+, post: 30374, member: 322"] Thank you all for you comments and I have a few more questions. 1> How do I keep the cows from letting everything suck. I don't mind an old cow that has enough milk for every calf on the place but I think that it hurt some of the calves on my heifers because they weren't getting enough milk. 2> As far as easy keepers go, what do you mean by that. I had a terrible time of keeping my fall calves in shape. This is the first time I have ever had a fall herd and I am wondering whether or not to continue with a fall herd because I had 55 fall cows and was unrolling 2 bales of prairie hay and 8 lbs of grain a day and did not have the best bred back % in the world. On some of my other cows if I fed that much I would be taking them to the sale because they wouldn't bred back because they would have been to fat! 3> What do you mean by to prime to easy? 4> What is bos indicus? 5> Why would simmental be a good cross? I am not doubting anyone I am just one of those people who can drive another person nuts because I ask so many questions. You gotta learn somehow! I know these questions come from a lot of different posts and appreciate any answers yall can give me! Thanks J+ [/QUOTE]
