Area where cows were fed with two ring feeders.



Now that's what carbon in soil can do..

Hi, the orange calf in these photos is meant to be off Curaheen Earp (Simmental AI bull), she is a lovely hairy orange heifer with a lot of white under her belly, she is off the red cow lying down beside her. Very quite and if she is from the Simmental bull I would like to keep her for a cow. But I have my suspicion she could be off a neighbors CF52 Charolais Stock bull, the 1 lying down in the back ground is also off him. (she is a grand cow, produces a good calf, but a bit ignorant and I see she is starting to get pock on her udder).
So with the quite temperament, hairy orange and white hair I am thinking she is Simmental, but the lack of any white on her face is making me think she could be off the Charolais, the Fu€kr was in 2 day after the cow was on heat and I cant see anything else that looks like him and I doubt he just dropped in for a chat.(his owner would and you would nearly need to say a mass to get rid of him)
If I was any sure she is a Simmental I would hope to keep her for a cow but if I though she was Charolais I would start pushing her on a bit on meal and sell her at the back end as a weanling. I am thinking if she was off the Charolais then she her hair would be finer, any opinions?

Simmental.

You could call the ICBF and request a sire verification test. It cost about 22 euro per animal last time I checked.

Not hard to guess where they were here also. Westerwolds really does appreciate the extra nutrients.

I could well be wrong Anto but I'm thinking she's sired by the CH. The lack of any major white marking's apart from the belly and the shape of her head all signal CH breeding to me. I'd be expecting a star or white face and other white markings from SI on that sort of cow. Perhaps a genetic test if affordable would remove any doubt but I'd be betting on a CH sire.

Fine animal.

Had this bullock born last July left over from last year. Was a right runt all the winter and never thought he'd amount to anything but has done a great thrive since last March when I let him off to grass.

I presume you will keep her as a replacement. She is a lovely heifer.

How do you upload pic on this new site. No place to add attachments

Lady Haywire

I still use Imgur or embed Twitter pics, though think the Twitter ones can be prone to disappearing after a while.

TVR twins doing well for themselves at about 6 weeks now!




And sooooooo wild :pac:

Are you on the responsive site, the blue and green yoke? There should b a paperclip icon there under the reply box if that's how you usually upload photos?

There's an option at the bottom of the page to go to the legacy site and when you're on that, you again have an option to go to the touch site somewhere at the bottom of the page if you're used to that on mobile.

I'd take a screen shot to show you but I was stuck on the responsive site for a few days and I'm not going back in there ever, ever, ever again:mad:

That's where I am and I can't get out.

You're working off a phone I take it?

On my phone you go up to the top right corner and press the three dots and enter "new tab" then into the postimage website and upload of a picture from your gallery on your phone to the website. Then when it says upload complete. Go down the list underneath the picture of links and I click onto the direct link tab and it says link copied. Then I come back over to my first tab which is boards where I'm posting a message. Move down a space and press the blue dot and the copied link is posted in the message and then wrap img tags around that link to embed the picture.



Go yourself and click reply to this message to see the img tags wrapped around the link. But don't actually post a reply not unless you really want to.

You'll have to close all boards tabs and clear cookies. I can talk you through it on Chrome but it's fairly similar on all operating systems I think?

Muckit

Yeah l couldn't click into chitchat thread there last week. Every other thread worked. Deleted cookies off phone and it working now no problem.

You might have to do it two or three times. I had to do it 3 times and then google boards and sign in again.
