Well, I got a bunch of pictures of the cattle, but haven't uploaded all of them yet, I did get the videos up though, so here's some
The weaned calves, #99 is the 4H candidate steer, 5X is the only replacement in that bunch, Teddy is the bull calf that doesn't want to get up, figure I might keep him over winter and see if I have a market for him in the spring.. can always put him in the freezer, young bull meat is just fine, and they grow better. There's a big steer, faded tag and kinda buggy eyes, that's Buggy, probably the heaviest of the lot, and from a relatively small 4 year old cow (maternal brother to Teddy, Full brother to Marko that you'll see later)

Here's the 2 other replacement heifers, 1X (Tera) and 8X (Lava), both are really well behaved and I like their looks.. they're 7/8th sisters (different great-grandma, all the same sires). I think 8X's mother "Hekla" and grandma "Alma" are in the picture too, she's 11 now. Tera's mother Mega (with the bell) is going on 6 years old already!

Here's Caddy (Teddy's mother), and full siblings Chroma (daughter), and Marko (son)
