[QUOTE="BRYANT, post: 781144, member: 10562"] I usely pull all my calves and ship the same day and very seldom do I keep replacment heifers because I don't like the risk that goes with heifers But this year I am going to keep about 8 or 10 Brahma cross heifers that I really like for replacments. They are about 6 months old now when I take them off of the cows do I need to let them get weaned before I have them branded, dehorned and shots. or is it better to just do it all at once. Also what kind of a feeding program would you all recomend, like so much a day or put them on a feeder and keep feed out? I want them to grow out and be good cows if I am going to keep them this is kind of a trial to see if I want to keep heifers again. [/QUOTE]
