Yes, will use only AI for a while for them and a plan is to breed pedigree animals. They already have bulls selected for each for their first calf.

First two served this morning.
Bulls used:


These two will be used for all heifers.

The third one for the evening. Stress free handling They seem to be easy to work with as well, as long as they have a bucket of meal in front of them.

Nice cattle. So are you getting into purebred cattle now? Interesting seeing the different breeds in other countries.

Yeah, abit. It's been a dream of mine to have this breed for a decade. Also it is becoming a necessity to have some purebreds to grow a bull for our own commercial cows. It got quite hard to find a bull we want with an adequate amount of info about him.

The best place in life is to feel like you're living the dream. Good luck in your new venture.
We got into AI in our herd because we wanted to raise our own bulls as well. The cost of buying quality bulls was getting to take away to much of the profit for us especially when u factor in an injured bull here and there. Now we are trying to figure out if we want to enter the purebred business.

Congratulations that is very exciting. Looking forward to following your progress.

They're built a lot like a halter bred quarter horse.

Getting opinion from the girls on the bull sellection


Two first AI'ed are already comfirmed incalf. Others still have abit of time left until I can tell if they are pregnant or not. Gonna add two new bulls to the tank for the empty ones. These are easy calving, heifer safe bulls, so will be abit more confident in using them on heifers.



And started hot wire learning process for the girls before they go outside.

It says something about your area and concerns over calving ease compared to here in the US. You are calving 100 pound plus calves without assistance... and here many of our cows are incapable of birthing anything over 70 pounds without being pulled it seems. Personally, I believe you have much better cows.
