I always prefer to AI on observed heat - TAI results have been spotty at best.

The population of Central Oregon is predicted to more than double over the next couple of days. One camp of >30,000 on private land in the Ochochos. We already have a pretty significant fire burning close to Sisters so that might stop a few people from coming. I'll be patrolling !

Mostly with their nuts removed which is what should have happened to him IMO

Normally we end up 50:50 or close - this year even if all the rest have heifers we will be heavily on the side of bulls. Live calves are good !

We still have 8 to 10 " of global warming covering the fields so you could be right. Now at 18 calves - 15 bulls - day after due date !

5% is hardly "normal"

I agree - never seen anything to prove there is a genetic component to malpresentation.
