[QUOTE="Lucky, post: 1668885, member: 32659"] Thank for all the replys. I’m going to think on this awhile. Nutrition is definitely an issue and I’ve been working on that but nothing happens quickly. We run the bulls 4/15-7-15. We used to do 5/1-8/1 but the heat was getting to the bulls and February is always the worst for newborns so we moved it up 15 days. I’d really like to get down to 75 days and have the majority of the calves born in a tighter window. I’ve also been culling hard and the last few years and replacing with bred heifers. I still have several older cows though. I figured the Lute might tighten up the early calvers and if I could use markers we could go back and Lute the ones that didn’t settle 1 more time. I’ve been reluctant to try this as it always seems the best thing to do is let nature take it’s course. [/QUOTE]
