[QUOTE="Travlr, post: 1816233, member: 42463"] In both Arkansas and South Dakota the priority was having calves born on clean pastures. So we bred our cows to calve on snow. That means we get no navel/joint ill. I also like them to get a good start before the spring rains come with any wind. A calf can take a lot of cold with snow, but a cold rain and wind can kill a newborn. This also puts calves at the best marketing window in the fall, Late September and into October. I've never done two calving seasons. If a cow doesn't breed for January/February calving she is down the road. [/QUOTE]
