[QUOTE="msscamp, post: 188866, member: 539"] Cows do not necessarily know when they are 'full' and overconditioned cows will lead to as many calving problems as underconditioned cows. Too thin and they will not bred back and cannot support a calf, too fat and they cannot calve without help, plus overfeeding in the last trimester goes to the developement of the calf and results in the calves being bigger and leads to dystocia, pulling calves, heifers not accepting their calves due to the stress of pulling, and all sorts of other problems. Been there, done that, got the t-shirt. [/QUOTE]
