[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1619426, member: 9096"] Yup, Prada is a good cow.. They may be a bit smaller than average at weaning, and I might wean them in August to give her time to fatten up again before winter.. maybe I'll pull just one? Maybe I'll freemartin test the heifer if she looks good enough This is why I spend so much time with my cows... being able to do this without putting her in a squeeze, getting kicked, etc.. sure helps at calving time.. I'm down to about 3 cows I can't handle like this, all the old shorthorns pretty much.. Meanwhile if I need some extra milk for a calf, I just go to another cow and milk a quart, I hardly stock colostrum anymore [/QUOTE]
