Thanks that makes me feel better. I did not the first time around and had to get rid of two cows. One aborted and another I had to pull her calf. Also knock on wood @coachg, here's to hoping all goes good.
I have culled out (sold) my cows with bad utters, or if I have had to pull their calf...
I have a group of heifers which I plan on breeding in December (15months old). Do you always pelvic check? This is my second set of Calves I've ever kept. All of there mothers are good and have never had troubles calving. I wasn't sure if that approach would be fine or if I should Pelvic check...
Sold a 6 year old Hereford last night- good shape just fell behind from fall calving to spring (only reason I sold her) weighed 1300 and was at 101.92 a pound. She was in the highest price per pound on cattle with average dressing- 10 total cows, weight:1105-1450 Avg Weight:1234 Price range...
Nice looking calves! What kind of bull did you breed to? Seems like they are all throwing white somewhere.
My cows have a rough date of Sept. 13th as a due date. Hoping they start coming soon. Like you all said above it's the best time of the year when calves are hitting the ground!
