[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 1424309, member: 968"] jdg - very good points & reasons. You and I have the same end point goal --- calving heifers at 5-6 BCS. In my case, feeding 5#/hd/day to weaned heifers thru breeding is the most economical & easiest time to supplement. This time frame is through our brutal winters. Different weather/winters and different management, but ultimately striving for the 2-year old calving, breeding back and raising a good calf - as cheap as possible on grass & hay the rest of their lives. I breed the whole herd for 60 days, so we are looking at 2-3 cycles also. And my heifers/cows are strictly AI bred now. [/QUOTE]
