Not really. I had quite a few springers and open heifers. I started selling those off as soon as they started to freshen. They kept the cash flow pretty good for the next two years. I'd been keeping my bull calves for a year before I sold the cows too,so I had those to sell when they were finished out. I already had a cow/calf herd too.

One thing I did find out as soon as they were gone though,all my bills dried up too. I sold them in late November 2003,and by the following February,I actually ran out of deposit slips before I ran out of checks for the first time in my life. I figured out quick that most of the milk check had been going to the electric company,the feed store,the vet and to the kids for their labor.
