[QUOTE="CosgrayHerefords, post: 760984, member: 8766"] We summer our heifers at my grandparents house and I see them about once a week. So I go today to check on them to see how they are growing and to get the heat checks from my grandpa and I see a heifer that has started to develop an udder. I inspect her a little closer and realize her starting to spring up and definately has sprung an udder. Kind of surprising since we turned the bull in 3 weeks ago! This heifer was born March 11, 2009 and looks like she will calve any day now to one of our herd bulls who smallest calf calved this year was 97 lbs and had 4 born at 110 or higher. Have any of you had experience with this and what did you do, vet was closed today so I'm calling him tomorrow morning but just wanted to know if anyone had experience. We usually give shots of lut to all bigger heifer calves but we pulled the bulls out when she was only 5 months old and she was one of the smaller ones and the bull with her was 2,500 so I am astonished she got bred and we didn't give her one!
