Fall Calving has begun

[branxchar&charx]

I actually only have a handful that will calve this fall. These came slightly early. Vet estimated the tigerstripe to calve about Sep 1st and the RWF Oct 1st. They were preg checked in April. These girls were featured in this thread when i first got them:

Speaking of a touch of ear...

Picked these girls up about a month ago. 3 are more flighty than i like; I'll give them a little time to settle down, may regret that later.lol

Also fun fact, they were running with my grandpa's black angus bulls. Obviously not homozygous for black. I was hoping for black baldies but i'm not going to complain.
Tigerstripe had hers on Sunday and promptly disappeared with her calf until yesterday, Wednesday.




This one was born yesterday.

This one came fresh out the oven this afternoon. This heifer is not very tame, surprised I got as close as I did.

This makes 4 out of 4 heifers. These were heifers and a cow from the salebarn. Everything else in the spring.

I am excited to see how this little girl develops.

One of the most gentle cows here. She really doesn't have a flight zone, esp considering i got her from a group that included a couple man eaters.

I thought it would be interesting to round out this thread. I weaned these 4 heifers last month and they sold today at OKC Stockyards. I'm pleased with the number they brought: $1704 each.

those cows and heifers look like they all have really nice udders on them. they should raise some great calves for you.
