[QUOTE="SRBeef, post: 688522, member: 7509"] It seems to me conception is either yes or no. Yes is a calf every year no is a missed year. Maybe in large herds on western rangelands holding an open cow over a year does not seem that big a deal. And maybe that is also why they start having conception rate issues. Nutrition and minerals and shots to me are part of maintaining a healthy herd. I know rhere is a drought in TX which can make it tough but normally a healthy cow, exposed to a healthy bull for 45-60 days should be pregnant or she has to grow wheels. I don't think 100 percent conception requires a lot of purchased inputs other than what is needed to maintain good herd health for the entire herd. jmho. Jim [/QUOTE]
