your better cows. A better goal is to correct the cause of the problem so you,have fewer
reproductive culls.
It is also expensive to hang onto non-breeders too long. How long is too long?
That's difficult to answer because there are so many variables. A repeat breeder becomes
expensive when; 1.) her production drops and she keeps a better, more profitable cow out
of her stall, 2.) her health and breeding costs escalate, 3.) she remains dry too long, gets
fat and runs the risk of having calving-related problems next lactation, 4.) she calves in
the heat of the summer, or S.) her calving time gets pushed out of the base-building
period.
If you are trying to maintain a milk base, it may be wise to have cows calve
throughout the year rather than having a seasonal herd. When one group of cows move
out of the base-building period because of longer calving intervals, another group with
similar calving intervals can slide into the base-building slot.
