[QUOTE="Banjo, post: 1675336, member: 17304"] I do spring calving so i wean in the fall....if you can have you a couple of paddocks with stockpiled fescue waiting for your weaned calves, that works well for me. They are already eating good forage, so it doesn't make sense to me to put calves in a dry lot with hay and a new food source like ground feed. If they are of the size where they can utilize grass/clover....you can just about wean them without them skipping a beat. I weaned some bulls that i am going to keep like that.....i don't think they slowed down growing. [/QUOTE]
