[QUOTE="lithuanian farmer, post: 1521807, member: 19683"] Finally, fall calving heifers started calving. The first one is bred by Limousine bull. Had a medium size bull calf today, guess around 90lbs or a bit less.. 290days gestation, calved unassisted. Heifer is 7/8Limousine. She was a bit confused what to do with the newborn. Haven't even licked it and walked away to the herdmates. Brought the steel pen. Put both in it. She was calling for the calf. Nursed the calf well, haven't lifted the leg even once. Then let both out. She started licking him and both walked to the herd. [img]https://s26.postimg.cc/66ij7w8op/WP_20180808_17_39_28_Pro.jpg[/img] The next one due is the limoxbbxdairy heifer we bought from a neighbour last year. 282 days today, but still hasn't prepared yet. One more heifer should be due this month too. Then later in September the first AI calves will arrive from heifers. And just for fun. Took a couple photos early this morning when went to check heifer. It sure was a nice view.
