[QUOTE="BFE, post: 1770679, member: 28532"] Fall calving and the winter following will sure shake out the hard doers IME. Even here where we get little to no snow normally, you'll want some sort of calf only shelter. We're wet and muddy, I'd rather have froze over but no one listens to what I want. I would limit feed the calves to supplement a few pounds a day once the hay feeding starts. Around here, having worked and long weaned (60 day) calves for sale in April is where the money is at. Don't want to go over 600#, 550-600 is the sweet spot here. [/QUOTE]
