We bought 200 mix cows last fall and are in the thick of calving. With the snow and very cold temps last week, I noticed that the limousin cows bred to limousin bulls had rather weak calves, that is, compared to the english type calves that we had in the same time. Almost all of the limousin calves had to be put in the barn or at least helped up. All of the angus x and hereford calves were up getting their first meal within 15 to 20 minutes of being born. Is this characteristic of the limousin breed? All of the cows have an approximate bcs of 5-6. Thanks!!!
