Cow with calf at foot - bought in..

Belongamick · 2011-12-27 18:43:20

A friend of mine buys in 20 cows with calf at foot each year in spring selling both in Autumn - cow fattened, not in calf. He works full time and I cannot figure out why a rogue bull does not pay the herd a visit, why there is not daily war in the field with cows coming in heat, calves going ape etc... Is there anything on…

Is there anything on the market to prevent cows going into heat?
