Had a Brangus girl I bought from an little FFA girl at the county fair.
Paid way too much for her the Mrs. named her Baby and she was. Halter broke and followed you like a dog.
At 21 she had given us 19 bull calves not one heifer. She developed COD cystic ovarian disease from Lepto due to feral hogs in the stock ponds during the 2011 drought. Her teeth and BCS were still good the day she went to slaughter.
I wonder what the odds are, 19 for 19 on bull calves, that's incredible.
Never have had any other cow in over four decades to have all same sex calves. I figured it was Murphy's law as I wanted heifers from her to retain, she consistently calved 11 to 12 months and raised the heaviest calf at weaning.
