Those goosenecks are some trailers.

would those goose neck trailers work off a fast track??????????[/QUOTE]


Doubt if they would, the gooseneck looks very low,
Maybe with a bit of a modification

A couple of BAX cows

Pic 093 is a BA x AAX Cow a week from calving, carrying a Lim.

Pic 094 is a BA (Landais) x CHX again will calve within a week to ABI Lim. Carrying her 3rd calf. Her previous 2 were super heifers. Her first calf by the Lim bull Redpaths Jaguar (RSJ) is springing to the Lim FL22! (I took a Pic but it vanished into thin air!)

Pic 105 is a BA (Landais) x Ped CH, calved her third calf 2 days ago. A super bull calf off the Lim Millbrook Vic. A super cow to breed.

Pic 096 BA cow from above, from another angle with her calf today. I didn't have the heart to put him up in the rain!

Pic 109 Ped CH cow by Newlook (NWK), Dam of BAX above, Heading off next week! (She could be 900Kgs)

She is a good milker. Her mother was a good milker for a CH, as was her mother. The sire Landais I think brought or a least held milk.
From the CH point I resisted the likes of CF52 when he was flavour of the month, and tried to improve the female aspects.
And I just got lucky!!!

Got rid of this lot today, 14 wethers in the near pen, 8 in the next and the three stooges who didn't get the chop properly :rolleyes:

Some smashing stock there Bizzum. Good deep bodies on them and they all seem to have good milk.

I'd say that cow is around the 900 kgs alright. Are you selling her in the mart or is it a factory job?

I sort of kept an eye on keeping milk in the Charolais as well as them few Blondes.
That big CH cow will go to Roscrea, prob next Wed. She left that nice BAX cow after herself and an Alcazar heifer 20Mths old, AI'd last week, and this years calf, again a heifer by Excellent. She was prolapsing badly on the last pregnancy. I also have an Alcazar heifer 18 Mths old out of her Dam, going to the bull soon.

What is that CH heifer from your Blakestown cow by?

SGO. Blakestown dam is by SLV out of an ECI dam. That photo was taken the start of sept... you should see her now

Was handling her today but couldn't take a pic cos my camera is broke :mad: She's flighty so I'd like to halter break her to calm her down!

Bizzum

Pic 003 is a Limx heifer by Redpaths Jaguar (RSJ) out of the yellow BA cow posted a while back. We calved her today, a Lim bull calf, supposed to be by FL22 but AI man had no record, our calendar just noted that she was AI'd. A Good calf too!
That photo was taken a couple of weeks ago but she doesn't look to be extra milky!

SGO should hold onto any milk for ya.
You have the makings of a proper cow there. Stick an easy calving BA in her this time next year and away with ya:D

I've 2 Sylvain cows, Good breeders they are.

Hold out until she's reared the calf before you reach your conclusion. She could surprise you yet!

BA aren't a breed I've ever used. Would you recommend them? Would they be suitable for heifers?

I see your not a fan of the black LIM yourself!?

Bizzum

A Slyvain cow, not extra special to look at but a good breeder. Heifer calf at foot by Roundhill Doc (RHD), Real nice calf in the flesh!
The cow is carrying her 3rd calf to RHD again. RHD indeed........I mean RHI, the Charolais, not RHD the Angus!

Bizzum

Pic 007. The cow in front is the previously posted BAX CH cow about two weeks before calving.

In the background is an other Slyvain cow. Very hot to handle. No much talking to her around calving time or a week or two after. She is the Dam of the young Alcazar Bull we are keeping for breeding. She is within a couple of weeks of calving to Fury Action. However that goes!

Wanna bet:D

Pic 002 carrying to FL22 calving late Dec/Jan. There are several black and red Lims there!

The BA I used mainly was Landais on heifers, no problem calved. He can't be got anymore, so I want to see what APX is like from Dovea. I used him to bring a tidy cow with milk and muscle in the genes!

Great looking stock Stan! You're blessed with your land and weather.

Muckit

Yes great land there! I've said it before and I'I say it again, you won't beat dairy farmers to show lads how to utilise grass, not a blade wasted there. Fair dos.

I don't know anything about dairy stock to comment on yours, but if they're as good as the grass they're eating, they're smashers!
