[QUOTE="wbvs58, post: 1785187, member: 16453"] I don't know what it is here but my calves seem to grow 2nd to none. My soil would be the very worst sandy granite possible and the country is very difficult to get around with rocky outcrops and clumps of trees and I grow just about every weed known to mankind but the cattle do well. I went to pick up some hay yesterday from some friends who have bought bulls from me farm very good black soil country and while their cattle looked good they certainly don't get the growth that I get. I went out this afternoon and took a few photos for you. These calves have just been on grass and their mothers milk, no supplementation to the mothers either. They were born mostly in July and we were waterlogged, Sept Oct (our spring) had regular rain and the white clover went beserk, Nov dried off and Dec and Jan we were virtually back in drought but we have had a couple of small storms this past week which seems to be getting things going again. In order, the first is a yearling heifer that will calve in July at 2 years of age, she is by Clunie Range Plantation, a Beast Mode son. T8 is by DB Iconic. T4 is a beast, he is by SAV Rainmaster out of a GAR Prophet cow, I like those Prophet cows, His current weight is 362 kg (798 lbs), he should easily wean in March over 400 kg (880 lb). The rear end shot is also T4. T18 is by GAR Ashland T31 is by Clunie Range Plantation. People liked the Plantation bulls I sold last year. T5 is by DB Iconic T1 is a heifer by DB Iconic out of a Basin Rainmaker cow (2nd calf), she is shaping up to be a pretty good cow. T7 is by DB Iconic.
