[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1654223, member: 39695"] I wean most of my calves around 5-7 mos. When my cows start losing condition because the rain has stopped and the grass is short. I can feed the calves cheaper and better in the feedlot than I can hauling hay and creep to pasture. We get some fall rain and my cows get some really cheap gains in grass if they are dry. My cows that will calve the end of Feb are BCS 7&8 going in to winter with no supplementation sense the calves were weaned. They got green chop corn silage the month of September. It helps them out and teaches the calves to eat silage. [/QUOTE]
