[QUOTE="coachg, post: 1799378, member: 22053"] My idea on low birth weight revolves around unassisted births . No local vet will make farm calls anymore. I don’t want tiny but I want a calf that a heifer can have . I use a higher birth weight bull on my cows but I still don’t want a 100 lb calf . After a live calf hits the ground I think it falls on me to provide ample and quality forage for momma . If I have ample grass I don’t creep feed my calves but if drought or some other factor affects my forage I’ll creep feed based on cost vs profit . Don’t think I’m any different than most everyone on this forum. [/QUOTE]
