yep in most beef type cattle being open means a trip to the sales barn and then to the hamburger shop. Rancher's won't usually mess around with an open cow, as she (cow) will never make up for not having a salable calf every year.

Janet and Sheila are "open" this year aka not preggers. Granny was open last year.

This is what I was thinking too but wasn't quite sure.
I was thinking open...like in heat maybe though...bleeding.

or she did get bred but it didn't "take" aka no fertizilation or calf. Fair or not if a cow is "open" it's considered her fault. And since I know Porter is currently johnny on the spot it would not be him.

IN YAKS it's a little different some do NOT come into season every year for a multiple of reasons. And to be honest, I expect Star to be open next year as she will have calved 4 years in a row.

So Star may refuse to let Porter "do her"?
