Talk me through this
How do you choose which ones to serve to lim?
Not seen bulling pre service?
Designated beef breeders anyway?
Estrumated non bullers that calve in first week and then get sexed next year are just kicking can down the road?
It's just something I've heard of people doing but I haven't tried it.
I was thinking I'd just put the scratch cards on 5 days earlier than usual and anything that would be getting beef anyway (70% of the milkers) gets a 285 day Lim and those that would get dairy just get a new sticker and a pat on the back. Then from the usual planned start on mating (May 10th) it would just be back to the usual sexed dairy and BB.
With heifers on a semi synch program as well it would mean calving should start with a bang.
