[QUOTE="BC, post: 186818, member: 67"] You should be able to transition this pair in a 2 to 3 week period. Cut the heifer back to 3/4 of her feed the first week, 1/2 the amount for about a week to 10 days and then 1/4 of the amount for another week to 10 days. Watch her body condition so that she does not loose to much weight too quickly. Remember, she has been sitting at a Sunday dinner table for most of her life. She is also nursing a calf and still trying to grow. [/QUOTE]
