You've d'eye for them LC

Few middling ones in it all the time but they are getting better every year. Have a right good bunch of heifers gone to the bull this year so will give me a chance to thin out a few of the worst cows.

FTY calf out of a Rubis cow 8 months

ALANC81 · 28-06-2015 4:39pm

Cheers tanko.

No bother, fine calf. How do you find FTY calves for docility?

I can walk up and scratch that calf in the field but he was 5 months old before he'd even let me touch him. I can scratch him on the tail but he won't let me near his head.

We have another FTY 15 months old and he was and is a different calf he comes looking for a scratch when we go into the field and did as a little calf to.

In general there not as quite as others but they come round. I wouldn't use him on dodgy cow.

Looks like young lmx bull calf needs a sat nav!!

ALANC81 · 01-07-2015 7:28pm

Ha ha it's a calf trying to mount the wrong end of its mother. He's a pbr Lim by EFZ and he's the worst calf we had this year.

Kovu · 01-07-2015 7:38pm

There's a whole lotta calf in this lady! She's just due now to Virginia Andy.

ALANC81 · 01-07-2015 7:48pm

Never used Virginia Andy have you used him before, what are his calves like?

Never used him before either but seen a few of his calves at shows and thought they were nice. Sorta regretting it now as I hope she can calve what's in her!

ALANC81 · 01-07-2015 8:11pm

she looks a good square animal hopefully she will be ok.
We have a cow here that looks like she's carrying an elefant but every year she calves a nice but handy calf. Her size is all water.

She had a big enough calf last year to RHF but she had been in the shed and stuffing herself with silage, will take her in tomorrow to ground round the shed.
