[QUOTE="sms3has9, post: 1769142, member: 39088"] [ATTACH type="full"]22297[/ATTACH] Bought this bottle heifer in February of 2019 and AI’d her to the red angus 84s. [ATTACH type="full"]22298[/ATTACH] She gave me a beautiful little heifer April 22, 2021. I was able to hand milk her without any issues. Then my neighbor who has brangus let me have a little heifer born a couple days later to a young oops heifer that somehow got bred way to early but calved just fine. He didn’t want her raising a calf at yearling age. [ATTACH type="full"]22299[/ATTACH] Amazingly she took her too. Solved me having to keep milking and didn’t have to hunt one down. [ATTACH type="full"]22300[/ATTACH][ATTACH type="full"]22301[/ATTACH] I think she did an amazing job at raising them. Only problem is I missed being able to breed her back because of personal issues. This year I had a wreck and a surgery unrelated to it so hubby said no to getting them bred this year for spring calves. Soooo now I worry they will have issues once I can attempt to get them bred.
