[QUOTE="MurraysMutts, post: 1742716, member: 39373"] Very nice! Thanks! This particular group was fall born, so grass was not an option for me. Tho I know some folks run their pairs on wheat thru the winter. Good food for thought on stocking rates! I'm most probably overstocked at both places. I've sold some from one place. Not gonna put as many back. Tho, the cows did good. And like I said, calves were on milk and hay all winter basically. So maybe that place needs to stay stocked and... I think my biggest gain will be de-stocking spring calver pasture eh? This is doable! Seems reasonably to presume fall born calves run on hay (my hay is sufficient but not alfalfa) and milk won't do as well as spring born calves on nice pasture and milk. [/QUOTE]
