Many farmers use the ICBF pocket notebook to record calving data. This can be very useful when it comes to culling consistent poor performers, udder problems, calving problems, docility issues, etc. These issues can often be forgotten about once a cow and calf are turned out.
Some farmers will use a coloured tag for these animals for ease of identification later on the year. With cull cows a good trade in marts, don’t be tempted to keep any free loaders if they are not performing.
