We pulled a dead calf a few weeks ago from a small heifer from the same scenario...calf was not too big...heifer was just too small. It was all my fault...just was not paying attention and by the time we noticed, heifer was too far along to abort. :( I am thankful we did not lose the heifer...

Carried our hereford heifer (19 months old) back to the vet yesterday for a follow-up...she is 3-3 1/2 months bred and doing well, although the vet did mention she was a bit vertically challenged (short) ;-). I then went and weighed her...now 980 lbs, a gain of 140 lbs from Dec. 16th for an...

Did the calf arrive OK? :?: Oh, the suspense... ;-) Van

If it won't use the litter box, just install a "doggie door" so it can run outside when the urge hits....HOWEVER, please post a pic of it when you get it installed... :lol: And, I don't see anything wrong with his choice of attire...looks a bit like what I lay around in myself! :shock: Van

What were you looking for? A heifer calf perhaps? Alice and I have a heifer that looks a lot like this calf except she doesn't have the eye markings...and she is really turning out very well. She is my favorite! I love all the white, though I know others do not. Nice looking calf! In fact...

She is not up yet... :lol: We worked all day burning lumber and loading tin from the tornado damage and we were wasted last night! :( But you are right...Alice will love em! ;-) They are cute little boogers... :D Van

Those automatic feeders appear to be working just as well! ;-) Nice calves... Van

Thanks for all the comments and input... Van

Well, the sun came up and I took these pics of the heifer I was asking about. Van

Thanks Dun. Apparently she is not going to be a big gal. She is short, or at least shorter than the neighbors. I feed them about 3lbs per head per day and they all are growing nicely. She looks like I want her to look...healthy! My brother-in-law can come up with some strange comments at...

Once again I will show my ignorance... :oops: Background info: We have a hereford heifer that the vet says was at 39 days on the 16th of Dec. She is a sale barn calf I bought on the 23nd of Dec. last year and I guessed she was 3 to 4 months old at that point, which makes her 15 / 16 months...

Hasbeen, Sorry to hear of the bad luck...that just sucks and is all I can say about it! :( I carried our first hereford heifer to the vet last Saturday to have her checked and discovered she was bred (39 days per the vet). This will be our first as well and I am already stressing over...
