New calf

[Frankie]

We had our first fall calf yesterday, a 78 lb. TC Foreman heifer. She's black all over, sturdy and lots of get up and go. Anyone else calving yet?

When he's not being collected Foreman lives here in OK, so I've seen quite a few bulls on test and they seem to do well. This is our first calf by him; wish she had been a he, but she's learning to run and buck today, so I can't complain. She should have a pal in a week or so to play with.

Isn't he collected at Genex in Strafford ? Are you a fall calver only Frankiestein?

I don't know if he's collected in Strafford but I got semen for him from them. Still have 2 '02 heifers of his.

I've got 17 on the ground in the last 2 weeks. Little monsters hit the ground running flat out. Don't even try to catch, tag, let alone weigh they're just to fast.

If posible I put the cows in smaller traps just befor calving. I also have a ten ft. calf catcher from valley vet supply.

I don't know where he's collected. Once upon a time we were strictly a spring calving operation, but always had some people looking for bulls in the fall, so a few years ago we bought a few fall calvers, too.

Frankie, when you get a chance, take a picture of your new baby.

Either way, I think she'll be a keeper.

Maybe someday I'll be able to register her. :shock:

I think I've got her twin sister here. I'll have to post one of mine tomorrow.

I'll see what I can do. After we got through weighing and tagging the little gal, 'momma' left in a huff and took her out to the pasture. That's where she's stayed. But she'll bring her up in a day or two and I'll see if I can get a decent photo.
