[QUOTE="andyt87, post: 7730640, member: 108540"] Can't tell you anything about the others, but we had 3 cows (Lim x Blue, Blue X Br Friesan and Hereford X Blue) calve to Fanfare 2 years ago. The Hereford X was the only one that calved naturally with heifer calf. 2 caesars with the others, live heifer from Lim X & massive dead bull from Blue X. Long gestation as well, hereford went 288, Lim x 299 and blue x 302 days. Had a nice bull calf the year before unassisted from a similar Hereford X Blue heifer (294 days), so had high hopes. Hopefully we were unlucky or got something wrong with diet, but he was only 1 out of 5 AI bulls that year that gave us problems and havn't used him since.
