As a heifer, Pinkie Pie is due on the 15th of January
and we are Ft. Worth bound on the 19th.
I can't wait to show cow calf pair.
I went to the Princeton FFA Winter Classic and in all four rings got reserve.
The judges said she lacks show presence and if she were a couple frame sizes smaller she would have gotten grand.
Hopefully once she calves they'll see that her frame size isn't that big a deal.

You should have told the judge Pinkie was a char. not a dexter. Sounds like you and Pinkie done well.

I have a couple of large framed cows she would fit right in with...Sure you don't want to sell her...
She sure is a nice cow can't wait to see here calf.

Gabby, first of all congratulations! You and Miss Pinkie Pie are an awesome team! You and she have done great this year!! She is a very nice heifer and looks to be on her way to becoming a great cow. One thing about showing is that you are getting that one person's opinion on a given day in about a 10 minute period of time. I think your opinion of her is the most important one.

That's exactly what my dad was saying, that we should switch cows!!

I still think she looks great. I have forgotten, what bull did you breed her to? Bet she and u do well showing her and her baby.

Congratulations! You have done an awesome job with her.

Just a little food for thought. Cattle don't read gestation charts, so just because she is due on Jan 15 does not guarantee that she will deliver on that date. She could still be preggers on the 19th.

Are you still going to haul her if she hasn't calved?

 

[Nesikep]

I totally agree with Chippie, I have cows that routinely gestate 295 days if they have a bull calf and 292 or so with a heifer calf

Nice animal!, but I'm not one who's afraid of a large framed cow

Very true with chars....they usely take the longest of any breeds...They like to let them cook for a while...LOL

I know I was just saying that's when she is due to drop.
And yes I'm still taking her.

 

[Nesikep]

Just wondering what her gestation time will be by Jan 15th... 285 days? If that's the case I'm quite sure she'd be later by nearly a week

Just be careful hauling her.. on the other hand the ride might make her have a calf in the show

 

[chippie]

Any updates? How did things go?
