Hi Natalie,
We are very interested in this work.Ok to extend but can you get them =
back in calf. Have you got some figures for conception rates?
Just dried off a 05 hiefer after 585 days and she is back in calf to AI. =
Downside is her dry period will be around 16 weeks.
I may not make it to the Field day but would appreciate any
handouts - preferably by post.
Cheers Jeannette=20
