[QUOTE="waihou, post: 850307, member: 6511"] No mud because I let the springers get up on the hill, but I can assure you there is still a bit around! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v439/SUEC/DSC06114.jpg[/img] A few heifers are fine, but when the main focus is breeding low birth weight bulls for dairy farmers to mate their heifers, it can be frustrating to get too many heifer calves-we had 19 heifers out of 35 born last year, but one of them was a free martin twin! Weighed this girl this morning, 36kgs, so was 1kg out in my guesstimate! [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v439/SUEC/DSC06141.jpg[/img] [img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v439/SUEC/DSC06142.jpg[/img] Note the cow is closely watching the weighing and tagging procedure. My cows don't stay unless I can weigh their calves out in the paddock in front of them without any agression! [/QUOTE]
