This is why I estrumate and dexamethasone all of my heifer calves when they get vaccinated at fall herd health.
Went out today and found a little fetus about 3-4 months old. We did all the calves last week. Little Miss Sunrise , my 6th calf born this year has bloody mucus all over her tail today so I am assuming it is hers. I saw all come into heat last week and thought I just missed seeing her, but no she was bred. Those sneaky little bull calves who knew they could be so fertile so young.. :help: At least I know they will semen test well this spring.. :lol2:
I did of course, that is why I insist that all my heifers are given a shot to abort. I remember seeing the calves riding her when I was out in pasture with them in the summer..
I wonder how many of the ones I sold aborted..
