I have to reg. Angus cows that are the overall best cows in my herd of eight. I bought them last June, they were bred back to the previous owners bull. After the first one calved I noticed her allowing a year old heifer nurse her....so I moved her. She let the 14 month old bull nurse her. Then the second one calved and she too will allow another calf to nurse her. So, now I have caught a third cow allowing others calves nurse her. The last cow did it last year and I told myself to cull her then but I didn't.
Don't I need to cull these gals? When would you do it, the oldest calf is 2 1/2 months old? And lastly should I sell them separate or together?
