Yup we’ve got the same problem with our recharge daughters about half of them don’t milk enough and Are fat with the smallest calves in fall, now the renowns I gotta say are better maternal cows, we have a Double bred recharge son that has perfect feet so it’s Just some That Are poor

Best female maker was old Net Worth Just watch out for them when they calved;)

We’re seeing some bad feet in our recharge, resource, and renown cows, they have a corkscrew toe, somewhere in that pedigree there’s weak feet, some of them have great feet and then some are bad enough we had to cull them so it doesn’t effect every cow

So I finally got you some pics of some stellars

We just had a fire this week as well, thanks to the Lord and the local volunteer firefighters and neighbors helping out, (BLM and state helped some) it burned 12,000 acres in three days on our mountain

I was thinking of getting you some pictures next time I see the heifers and the bulls and I sure will, we might use resilient as well next year Jimmy Sitz said to my dad if you like the stellars you’re gonna love the resilients

You Won’t go wrong with Sitz Stellar we’re gonna be calving our first heifers out of him this year, and thinking of using a son out of him

Likewise! There’s nothing worse then a beautiful cow that can’t raise a calf been there before, but Deer Valley says the Growth funds milk and our Renowns milk well so I think they should make some pretty good mama’s

Thanks

They’re about in the 550-575# range right now we never weighed them at weaning but the steer mates weighed 550 on Aug15, as far as who we’ll breed them to we’ve got till spring to decide so we’ll look around kinda not sure what what will work best on them, definitely don’t want to make a mistake...

You won’t see any green in montana been in a drought all summer These girls got weaned three weeks ago and are turned out in a pasture and taking care of themselves for now, I unrolled some hay for them today, their grass was kinda getting short
