[QUOTE="frederick, post: 7885912, member: 11063"] Perhaps for our benefits refresh us how your current calving is where you want to be and how your going to get there. Withe regards vet involvement as a block Calver they should only visit the farm twice. Once to solve problems early and secondly to tell you who is empty The problem solving visit is conventionally 3 days before start of service to see everything not seen bulling. Personally have mine at day 21 of service because time is the biggest healer and a lot of those cows you see at day -3 naturally sort themselves out. There is also a school of thought to deal with dirty cows earlier. I disagree with this one as well time will sort it or its too bad to be sorted. With the use of sexed semen without a heat detection a bull is probably the best way of picking up the tail Ender's. If you have block calving right it is very difficult to have enough time to have a vet visit that allows enough time to sort out of negative cows to serve again. The quickest way to achieve a good block is to allow natural selection. If a cow has not made the block easily it is probably just postponing your problems for future years to work too hard to keep her. [/QUOTE]
