A first for us!!

We really should've started our AI program in 2013, but finally got things rolling last December, and here is our first, out of our best cow.
Sexed heifer semen VAR Reserve 1111 born very early this AM. She was due on the 19th. Can't wait to see her grow and develop.

Did you AI yourself, or have a tech do it?

Congrats! I think one of the best things about AI is that it gets people really excited about their cattle.
I still remember my first AI heifer. I was pretty sure she was going to be born with wings and a halo. She wasn't quite that good but she went on to be the best cow we'd ever had on the place and it got me hooked and turned into a career.

Well said, especially the wings and halo part LOL :nod:

Right now using a tech, maybe down the road i'll have the time to learn AI but have a real good tech and going to "stick" with that approach for now

Congrats ! Looking good ! We bought 13 bred registered Black Angus cows. So far 6 bulls and 3 heifers ; one born this morning that I haven't checked. Sure was hoping for a heifer majority to boost our numbers but that's how it goes some years.
