[QUOTE="milkmaid, post: 319349, member: 852"] Speaking from a dairy perspective... cow needs 60 days dry or her milk production on the next lactation is greatly diminished. It's more noticable in 1st and 2nd lactation animals, after that it can be dropped to 30 days without a noticable change in breed-back time and milk production. But on a 1st calver, and especially with a beef animal!, you definitely need to give her at least 2 months dry. [/QUOTE]
