Friend of mine worked away from the farm full time, and ran around 20 cows. My brother , who was a police man , also ran some beef cows 20-30 head. They shared a bull. Brother let the bull out with his cows near the end of August . Our buddy usually got the bull week or so before Christmas . Brother owned the bull , Buddy got free use of the bull for boarding him over winter, bull went back to my brothers in May. These two did this for many years. During the 1990's my brother would sell his calves in March , Buddy sold his calves in May, just in time for grass. Brothers cows needed to be dried off, so they could have some rest time before they calved out again. My Buddy's cows had almost three months of grass pasture before they had their next calf , and were in great shape , and milked well all through the fall. Buddy's calves had a grain creep feeder, and never looked back when cold weather came. While my brothers calves always weighed more , My Buddy always got .20-.25 cents per pound more for the lighter calves to go out to grass. Both ways work. And no frozen calves

It increased the farm productivity and, in general, made life easier because more work could be done with this 'mechanical beast'.
