[QUOTE="jyarbrough, post: 869852, member: 17401"] Well, so far within the last four weeks the cows have dropped 22 of the 28 calves. Hopefully the other six will drop in the next two weeks. So I am planning to steer. So far I have 14 of the 22 that are bull calves. Also I have never steered before and I am planning on using bands. Am I wrong in waiting to 300lbs and then banding. That should put me Feb/March time frame. Is it too much stress since it potentially could still be very cold? Only reason that I was thinking on waiting was that I know nothing about adding implants and was trying to keep things as simple as possible since this would be my first attempt. [/QUOTE]
