[QUOTE="3waycross, post: 994681, member: 6713"] Personally i would have not used him on heifers! Having said that you are in it now so there'a one thing you can do for sure and that is to be very careful how you feed those girls.' I personally DO NO believe that the equation is 50% bull and 50% cow. To me it is especially on heifers more like 40% bull/40% cow and 20% feed. You want to keep them in good condition but definately fight the temptation to load them up for their upcoming lactation. You can always feed for milk and breedback later! I'd also keep the vet on speed dial! [/QUOTE]
