Ive been having a few problems with older cows going down. They werent in horrible shape last fall and made it through winter very good. But now that it has warmed up they are looking tougher. These are broken mouth cows in that 11-13 age frame. Ive only had problems with these older cows nothing else. But im just curious how everbody manages them. Do you sell these in the fall when you think thats their last year or what. I know they have age on them but they raised decent calves last year. Ive been feeding them pretty good. I know the developing calf is taking a lot out of them right now but i just dont get the second it warmed up they started looking tougher. Anyways like i said if everybody could tell me how they manage these older cows on different operations.
