We are backing heifers up to around Aug 10 and keep cows around Sept 5 --- main purpose is to try and give heifers every chance to breed back, we have little to no shade in most pastures---desert like arid pastures-- and heat has been a concern with panting calves on hot days, but with our super low humidity we have lost no calves to heat that I am aware of.
