[QUOTE="Putangitangi, post: 627263, member: 5956"] Please would you explain that statement? Do you not calve into the beginning of springtime when grass might grow? Here our cows come out of winter onto increasing growth, so although they may have lost weight through the winter as they were pushed to manage the pastures, they lose no more in the last weeks of pregnancy when their demand is high. During the first month of lactation they're on (hopefully, unless the sring is unusually cold or dry) increasing feed, bringing them back to fertility in good time to produce the next calf within a year each time.
