[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1319037, member: 9096"] MEGA HAS A HEIFER.. A very big strong one too... she had no trouble finding teats, drank until she was round like a pot-bellied piggie, and I still milked nearly a gallon of colostrum out when she was finished.. I have a heifer due at any instant, so I might be needing a little. The calf, even all wet still looks like it'll be impressive.. After she got her drink she was all bouncy and happy. Caddy's calf on the other hand wants nothing to do with me.. it's amazing what the first couple hours in the field with no human contact does to their instincts.. I did manage to pet the top of her head for a minute.. I'll be keeping her in the corral a little while until she settles down a bit and stops seeing me as a threat, otherwise she'll just turn too wild too quickly... There's no danger of that with Mega's calf. So 10 down, 13 to go.. Heavy on the heifers this year so far.. 7 heifers, 3 steers [/QUOTE]
