Yesterday I vaccinated and wormed my cattle before rotating pastures. I weighed the calves especially one heifer that has been out growing all the rest. Even the bulls. She is an AI calf out of a Gelbvieh bull Atlas 101N. She weighed 71 lbs at birth on 2-18-11 and she weighed 368 yesterday. That is over 4 lbs per day average on just momma. She is long and very thick already. Atlas is known to add hindquarter and she really shines in this department! Her momma raised the best heifer last year out of In Focus that weighed 877 yesterday at 13 months old. This new calf may be heavier at weaning than the one last year. This 59 cow has been an awesome calf raiser and she is only 3 years old. Lots of calves left!
