    The lad on the left is out of Ramses (14 months) and the lad on the right is out of adrlea Dan (13 months) half thinking of keeping the Ramses lad as my own lad is getting awfully big for my own cows (but he's throughing great calves and is quite)

    Both are 4/5 stars whereas my own stock bull is only 3.5 (rocky bull)

    This fella decided to enter this world with his best assets first, at 3am, needless to say I had to wake my vet for assistance.

    2 1/2 year old SH/CH cross heifer, thank God she was quiet......

    AA sire, thankfully he has waited to fully develop once he hit terra firma:)

    Poor little babba has had a very hard weathered start to her life! Two days of crappy weather to welcome her to the world.
    Thank feck for hedges and sensible mammies that shelter the calf or hide it. Just spent half an hour trying to find the wee yoke.

    Lovely outfit it is. Nice shapey heifer calf, and a nice bag of milk under the cow.

    She's a topper of a cow to be sure, off Tarot and a ET Hortensia dam, you're right about her bag, loads of milk and a nice tidy udder makes life so much easier for calving out! Only problem is she broke late last year so that's why she's so late calving. Have a serious overpopulation of heifers this year now.

    AFAIK she is, to HE stock bull this time with any luck. All she needs is a few months of grass.

    Ere, she'll be the last of those for a while I'd say, have to think about the suitability of them for buyers! Aye she's had one blue before for her first calf, off VMP. He was a lovely fella, had great bone to him.

    Sourced an SFL straw for her earlier, was thinking along the same lines as you! :D

    About ten that we know of in a mile radius. About half of them would border us on land. But a few have been clear so there's a teeny-weeny chance.

    Cracker! I take it the cow has a nice sup of milk, my bulls by ion but his milk figures wouldn't inspire you. Still 4.5 star maternal though :rolleyes:
