[QUOTE="JCcattle, post: 1419724, member: 27588"] Curious to hear thots on this! Had a major oops as my half Brown Swiss half Simangus heifer was still on her mother in pasture and the thing showed up bred when we preg checked the beef herd! Vet said she'd be ok when asked if we should abort the calf as she wasn't even a year old PLUS the bull that had the privilege was her own father :deadhorse: so calving season come and she calved before she even reached 16 months old. Pulled him with calf puller and had to bottle feed him a day or 2 til he was strong enough to stand and then help him several times sucking from his mother-sister and now a month and a bit later he's a happy healthy calf that loves attn. Years back we had a bull that threw extra fertile heifers that bred young before we could pull the bull (again, their father), but didn't know about it at pregchecking.. then wed keep the nice looking ones and suddenly in spring they'd gear up to calve. Not one of those calves ever made it tho.. any thots? I'd post this in the breeding forum but for some reason my browser doesn't let me go there! :roll: [/QUOTE]
