warm calving--not

 May 21 and in the middle of a snow storm.  The past 24 hours has given about 10 inches and the storm has 12 more hours left in it.  The temperature hangs at 33 degrees so most snow melts a it hits the ground so accumulation has only been about 3 inches at the most.  The ranch calves later then the neighbors to avoid winter storms and to have green grass for the cows after parturition.  As you can see the theory is not 100% successful but we still like the program and it's benefits.
