Eastern NE KS | Are your heifers getting enough exercise? I lead my heifers to feed almost a half mile every day.
At calving time, are the girls' body condition score 6-6.5? My girls slip back to a 5, 40-50 days post calving mostly because this period is before green up.
I raise these thoughts because I'm using bulls with more bw today than 5 years ago without new calving problems. Actual bw range has gone up about 7 pounds over this time.
