[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 24067"] Jamie -- as has been said, a lot depends on your location and available forage. I know several fairly large outfits in Texas that really like to calve in October and November. At that time the weather is mild and the small calves aren't that much of a drag on the mature cows at a time when forage is more sparse and of poorer quality. But by the time we get spring greenup in later February to March those calves are big and old enough to really take advantage of the lush forage. They can be sold in late summer to all the north Texas wheat guys or the hill country oat field guys. Arnold Ziffle [/QUOTE]
