Heifers and young cows are the future of everybody's herds. Here are some that will be replacing a few of the older cows in the next few years. What are your thoughts on them?
Here is a 2.5 year old heifer that is due to calve within the next month.
Here is another heifer that is due to calve this fall. I believe that she is due within the next 10 days or so. She is a purebred Murray Grey. She is around 1,200 lbs right now. We are very excited for her calf; she is the daughter of our very best cow who is now 12.5 years old.
These heifers are just turning 18 months old and will be bred this December to calve at 30 months.
Here is a cow x calf pair. The cow is a 50% Murray Grey x 50% Guernsey cow who is 3.5 years old and raising her second calf. Her heifer calf beside her is 75% Murray Grey. Her heifer calf is pictured in the second picture. She is 6.5 months old.
