I heard something very interesting the other day. I had a neighbor preg check his replacement heifers and ended up with 22% drys. Well over normal for them just like my 24% dry was well over for me. Now I really wonder why my neighbor, over 10 miles and 3 herds away, would have about the same dry percentage as me?
This is really curious. Maybe there is a deeper mystery here. I will have to find out how other people's heifers did in this area. Maybe I don't have as big as problem as I thought. Maybe it's sunspots or aliens or smoke in the air causing the problem. It will be interesting to find out some other people's percentage.
The next question is, will this continue through to the cows? Damn, too many questions and not enough answers.

I swear the closer we get the cattle to home, the larger the calves look and this is an example. Truthfully though i am a little unhappy with the unevenness of the calves. My calving was to spread out this year. Taken 9/18/2007.
