[QUOTE="WalnutCrest, post: 1306926, member: 21715"] Well, they're home now and in their pasture. Our bull greeted them at the gate stomping and snorting. He promptly informed us that the cow with the oldest calf was in heat. As soon as she stepped off the trailer, the chased her around the pasture until he caught her. One small rodeo (that could have been an enormous rodeo if not for the quick thinking of the guy who handled the haul for us) that ended up being nothing more than a few small scrapes on a cow's leg. If anyone is looking for someone to haul for them to/from mid/western Missouri, LMK. I'll happily give you a referral to him. Drop me a PM for his info. The sun was setting before I really got to take a look at everyone who hopped off the trailer -- but, I do know that we'll be selling a few of them as pairs once they drop their calves with pasture exposure to our fullblood Aubrac bull (I've posted pictures of Zach before) -- and, so if that sort of calf (Aubrac x. commercial SimAng) isn't your thing, nothing that a shot of lute won't fix. Ideally, these cows that will be relocating will be on their new grass some time between the end of February and the middle of April. These cows are enormous -- good width and depth across the board. Generally, the ones we're going to sell will be the ones with more height as we're suckers for the shorter, dumpier type. The group tally is: 1 -- Char x. Simm cow (white); this is the one our bull bred as soon as she stepped off the trailer 3 -- Solid Red (seller said they had some Simm influence); one of them has already been named -- Legs -- she's a lotta frame 8 -- Black / Brockle 34 -- Black (some/many w/ Simm influence) The cows were with a SimAng bull until the very end when a Char bull was put in with them for the tail end of the season. So, early calves will be SimAng out of SimAng cows ... the last few will maybe have some smokies interspersed with the others. The youngest calf was born yesterday. He was super easy going. He let my wife just scratch and scratch him. He was Red / Brockle out of a solid black cow. [/QUOTE]
