Rob - my first 2018 baby was born on Feb 21st. My bulls did a crazy good job (and the cows did a great job of "sticking") the summer of 2017 in that I had probably 90% of my calves born by March 30th. That conception really has helped my uniformity this year.
My conception this summer was not as great as summer of 2017. It will be interesting to see how next year's calf crop looks like - but that is what every cow-calf guy says!
