    +1.

    Was she as muscular at calving or has that developed over the 3 weeks? Was she easy calved?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,552 ✭✭✭limo_100


    smashing calf great end on her the mother of that calf would work well with a blue bull or even parthenaise.
    don't mean to be nosey but how much did the springer set you back?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 91 ✭✭defadman


    here's a picture of the dam nothing too special in my opinion but decent all the same.eh well she wasn't to bad, the cow was tight enough though.the springer set us back 2,320 back in sptember,people thought it was crazy!

    This is an old family relic. It's a membership card for the Land League. It was my Great Grand Uncle's, as far as I know.
    Anyone know how rare these are?

    Very nice piece of memorabilia there. Have you a special box, cabinet or frame for it? It merits it.

    This cow calved in early March, her AI doc shows she is due in two weeks, now I don't think that's correct, although the AI tech has confirmed it is according to his books:confused: She is a PB LM & incalf to a BA, she has had 5 heifers in a row so maybe just carrying light. Anyone thing we're a month off or will she be on time? Cause I'm baffled!

    (She is tender on the back right leg from a kick a couple years ago, hence the way she stands)

    Mystery solved:D Huge 'yalla' bull.....typical when I wanted a heifer!

    The wonders of calving, this cow had five heifers in a row, her full sister had four bulls. Both calved there yesterday and the other one had a heifer!
