[QUOTE="dun, post: 730309, member: 34"] We calve march through april, alwasy have because that's when the grass starts kicking in. Depending on the stockpiled grass we may or may not put out hay in march in the calving pasture. Another eeason for calving in march april is the weather is "usually" less unpredictable and if bad weather does roll in it only lasts a day or 2. Makes it easier on the new born calves and easier on me. Becaue of some bought cattle, this year we've had calves in august, too hot and is tough on the cows, grass going doramnt, and the calves because of the flys and heat. Had a december calf this year and that's just too early. Next year we'll be back to our usual calving window (unless we buy some oddball calvers) [/QUOTE]
