[QUOTE="Aero, post: 218717, member: 2076"] a virgin heifer is the most fertile animal on any farm. it is possible that the Charolais influence delayed the sexual maturity, but this is giving you the opportunity to improve your herd. getting rid of the late bloomer/possibly infertile female. the aborter could be a coin toss and would be dependent on your breeding plan. some people cull no matter what if the cow doesnt do her job; others will limp a female along for years if she doesnt wean a calf for an explainable reason. having a plan in writing to make these decisions for you would simplify these situations.
