[QUOTE="TCRanch, post: 1437007, member: 24027"] We moved calving back to end of Feb/beginning of March because of too many frostbitten ears and now wean mid-to-end Oct. We pull the bulls a minimum of a month prior to weaning and every heifer calf gets a shot of Lutalyse so we can sell (or retain) guaranteed open. We wean generally 45 days but the past couple years the market has been down so much we let them graze the winter brome field and sold in Jan. Yes, it has cooled down but if you're like us (probably not much further north) there still hasn't been much rain, therefore very dusty and not conducive to weaning - especially since this slight cool-down most likely won't last more than 10 - 14 days. My 2 cents? I'd hold off. [/QUOTE]
