Baldwin City, KS
Thinking about rebuilding my fall calving herd. One thing I struggle with is the best time to calve the heifers because we farm quite a bit of ground. I don't mind the cows being on their own. I've thought about maybe starting first of August since we are basically just down to maybe hay hauling and chopping during that month. Only thing I worry about is the heat. What all do you guys do? Thanks for the input.
