At what age should a heifer calve be separated from a bull?
Our strategy is to keep heifers from breeding until they are at least a year old. Our cows have recently had (2-3 months ago) heifer calves. We want to breed our cows again and the calves are with them. Should we be concerned with the bull with these young heifer calves? We plan to pull the bull to his own area in about 3 months. At that point some of the heifer calves would be 6 months old.
