I found a surprise when checking the herd this evening. This little South Poll heifer will be 16 months old a week from tomorrow…and had her first calf today. Assuming 280 day gestation, she conceived at 6.5 months old
. I was aware (based on preg check performed before purchase), that she was bred younger than I would prefer, but I didn't think she was bred that young. The calf is small, but (knock on wood) he and his young mama appear to be doing well.
