[QUOTE="Warren Allison, post: 1828819, member: 40587"] In retrospect, I probably should have left her. She would have done fine calving in that 450 acre row crop pasture. When we found her, probably this weekend, we could have just lead her back to Mattie's house on horseback. There is a gate on the back of that place, and only a couple of cotton fields between it and Mattie's house. Maybe 3-4 miles ,. and we'd never have to even get on the dirt road. At the time we took Gail over to that bull, a dairy man had about 6 Guernsey heifers over there getting bred to the same bull, so they should be caving about now, too. He said he'd sell us one to put on Gail, if he had one about the same time. There is a Saturday sale and a Monday sale in that area, and Scott has said he would go see if there was a beef calf there after Gail calved. I'd probably rather just get one of those 1/2 Brahmas from the dairy, even though he will want a war pension for it. I think one of those would be healthier. If we just keep her on grass and hay, we mighty not need another calf this time .Ms., Mattie had said she'd like to milk her if she wasn't bad to kick! LOL She could probably get a half gallon a day for her and Zeke, and still have plenty for the one calf. We will know in the next few days, I guess. [/QUOTE]
