This is our first blogging attempt, so we hope it will be a good way to communicate with others who are interested in what we are doing and have some of the same concerns we do about the industry. Spring is always a busy time for us, like it is for most cattlemen. We are nearly done calving, and despite the mud and cold, have gotten along remarkably well. It’s always so much fun to see the babies playing on the grass as it greens up. While you’re still calving, sometimes it’s hard to remember that it is already time to start the breeding process again. We started synchronizing the heifers using Dr. Patterson’s protocol two weeks ago already, and will start the cows before long. It’s only 4 days into spring, but it’s already flying by!!!
