[QUOTE="Arkieman, post: 637089, member: 5706"] We AI'd some commercial Angus heifers (3) to Cowan's Ali. We wanted a live calf and live momma. They had 2 heifers and a bull. They were born in Feb 2008. Also had a reg. Hereford cow that we AI'd to Ice Chest another Maine bull (we were hoping for a show steer for my kid - she had a heifer. I still have them all. The Ali calves were real easy doers. They have held condition really well on just hay (not very good hay at that). The Ice Chest heifer has struggled to keep condition (I think her momma shares some of the blame). I plan on keeping the 2 Ali heifers. I don't know what kind of momma's they will make, but I like their efficiency. Here's a pic of one taken in July last year. [img]http://www.hunt101.com/data/500/medium/h2side.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
