Well, I decided to take some pics today, since it was such a nice day and the heifers looked good, in my opinion! This group will be brought in soon and bathed and clipped for the upcoming show season for the kids.
This first heifer is a March born, out of our Fat Butt x Built Right cow. The steer we did so well with last year in the carcass contest (17 inch rib eye) is out of this same cow. This heifer is bred and owned for our son. Her sire is a really nice Steel Force bull we raised a few years ago. We collected him, and used him on a few cows before selling him for $5k.
This heifer is also a March, sired by the same bull as the heifer above. Her dam is a 3/4 blood Upgrade sired cow that our middle daughter showed a few years ago. She is already over 1000 pounds!
This is a 5/8 blood. Lock n Load is in her pedigree, along with Who made Who and Meyer 734. She is a May.
This is another heifer that is out of our Steel Force bull. She is an April, her dam is a Shear Force.
This last one is a Feb 5/8 blood embryo heifer. Sire is Shockforce, and the dam is HPRP Lady Prime. She is deep, but I hope she can grow some. She is the smallest in the group, yet the oldest.
I think the kids will have fun this year! What do you think?
