[QUOTE="Whitepeak, post: 7932993, member: 45704"] Oh right, might have to pop over for a visit. Tbh I've never actually been to Shenton's. Have they got 2 of Abbie's bulls then? I'm sure they had another Joiner son off her a while ago. The polled gene has always been an interest of mine ever since we had holsteins, hence why I'm having a dabble. And don't worry, I'm sure they'll be plenty of photos on Facebook. Fingers crossed we go on alright with my heifers this time. If we have any problems I might be running the next batch of heifers with Jane's Longhorn bull 😂 We've always sold quite a few bulls into dairy herds, but gestation length has never come up in conversation. However I understand its probably the number 1 reason the likes of cogent/genus give for not stocking/promoting Blonde bulls. Interesting to hear what your average gestation is, I'll have to look up what ours was last year. I've 2 heifers just springing atm to Eddie and Hashtag, currently 285 and 288 days. The Eddie is 285days and looks the closest to calving! [/QUOTE]
