When I bred cows last spring I synchronized the heifers and early calving cows to start calving Feb. 7 with a CIDR/ Lutalyse/GNRH program. Then I synchronized the rest to 21 days later to match any repeats, after the activity died down I turned the cleanup bull out. I pulled the bulls 17 days later and heat detected for 5 or 6 days.
The first draft are calving now here in Alabama. The first calf came Jan. 26, the first 7 were heifers and there were 8 hfrs and 2 bulls as of Sat. night. (the 6th) I have 21 in the calving trap counting the ones that have calved, got 3 today so far and had a set of feet showing, I need to go check after half time.
I think there are about 4 more still out north with the others. If they are going to hit their preg check they better " come a clucking".
My wife was home today and took several pictures for her facebook. She has several "cute" pictures and lots of head shots, if I find any cow pictures I will try to get her to help me post a couple here.@
