It takes a bit more time...but since I retired ( @ 39 yrs of age 6 yrs ago!!) I have the time, so it all works out!

Um what did you do to retire at 39? And are they hiring? :lol:

We are still calving out (ALMOST DONE) only about 24 left to go but this year we have (so far) 90% bulls and not many heifers. This was the year we were going to keep all of our heifers also. :?

I did have a set of twins 1 bull and 1 heifer - someone told we that the heifer would never be able to produce calves.

2 bulls will produce
2 heifers will produce
but
1 bull 1 heifer and the heifer would be no good
Does anyone know if this is true????

 

[Cal]

We're getting somewhere close to 30 sets of twins so far, including all of them that had 1 or both dead. When the weather was crappy and we were really busy and completely out of barn space I just about had decided (not seriously) that if a second calf popped out of another I was gonna knock the little b****** in the head...understand how sleep deprivation can make one very cranky and impatient at times.

 

[Brush Popper]

We are just getting started! Got 28 on the ground only 500 and some to go. Hopefully we'll have nice weather, as long as it don't get too hot. :lol:

Haystack.....LOVING that horse pic!!! Is that yours or just an avatar you picked up somewhere along the way???

Reminds me of my old QH that I had to put down.....brought a tear to my eye!!!

 

[Faster horses]

Haystack: Yep, its true alright. The heifer will be a freemartin in almost all cases and unable to reproduce.
