The calving season that is lol. So far 15 of my 24 Branvieh cows have dropped a calf and no asssist needed so far. Great looking calves and all feeding well. Biggest one so far is a 91 pound bull Smallest has been 79 pound And the rest are all in low to mid 80's. Second biggest was 86lbs. So far I am impressed, especially with the birthing ease and the feedings.
But there is one thing thats happened that I just know can't continue. Out of 15 calves there are only three Bulls. Whats up with that? I am not complaining as I am building up my future herd but that seems well above a norm. Granted I have another 9 cows to go but this seems higher than a normal average.
I will post some pics as soon as I can. between work, kids, and cows I think I just need to throw away my watch because I sure dont have time for anything lol.
