Well our calving season has begun. We had two heifers really early on but they were out of cows we purchased so I didn't count them as officially our calving season. The heifers started calving last week so far so good on them, then a surprise. An 11 year old cow had a 20 pound calf. We looked everywhere including in her for another calf but didn't find one. I still believe there had to be another but it's gone, and at 20 pounds didn't figure the little fella would survive the day. Here we are a week later and the little sucker is still with us. I give a ton of credit to the old cow she leaves the calf long enough to go to water otherwise she is right with it he gets up moves around a bit nurses then back to sleep. our ET calves are Due 10/8 and one calved a set of twins today one was DOA the other is small but healthy both heifers, so at least one did survive and since both were heifers we should be fine. This mating was our Abigale 913 cow x SAV Bloodline so hopefully the calf is really good.
the first two heifer calves born out of purchased females. The next photo is A first calf heifer out of our 9057 donor and Renown she had a Charlo heifer calf that is pretty sporty.
