The 3rd red heifer A43 had a solid black bull April 18th. Forgot to get a pic up to keep the thread updated. I'll try to still get a pic of them sometimes and post it. I'm really happy all three heifers calved unassisted with ease with the two register heifers having bull babies. All three heifers really have nice udders with plenty of milk. I'm really glad I hung on to them and didn't sell them. I've got 1 heifer left to calve this season, the black one I purchased from Sunset View. Hopefully it'll be 4 for 4 with no problems, but she is bred to a different sire. She's bred to the bull in the 2nd pic here on the thread that I raised. He is now covering Hereford and black baldies in Owensboro, Ky. I'm gonna try to keep updated pics as the calves get older.
