[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 160198, member: 852"] Nope. You just need to be a little more choosy about who you take your advice from. ;-) Calves don't forget very quickly - you need more like 6 weeks to be safe. I go longer; 4 months plus. Some people won't even turn their heifers back out with the cows until the heifers are ready for their first calf. So that's over a year apart. The calf's not a lost cause - no need to sell her yet, IMO - just separate them again and then keep them apart for a lot longer. It takes more than 4 days to dry a cow off. [/QUOTE]
