Well the heifers started calving Sunday. First one laid down and had her calf ( huge) with no problems. This calf was big. 102 lbs Both mom and calf are ok. I timed her when she had it and it took her 45 minutes from the time she found a spot to stay put till she had the calf on the ground.
The next morning I had another one, it weighed in at 90. All these were bred to a easy calving bull ( not the one I pictured a while back). I have 4 more to go and now. All came out fine so far but I can see the writing on the wall. I have the vet # ready and the O.B. chains and the chute if I need them.
Sure did not intend for them to have that big of calves.
