[QUOTE="Doc, post: 5845426, member: 71986"] [ATTACH=full]754258[/ATTACH] Not a great picture but illustrates a point,I hope, about natives. Taken this week. August LRed Calf on left belongs red poll cow 3rd right, not the blue in the middle. The blue in the middle has black mid October calf in background. Last to calve in packet of 20 autumn Calvers. On haylage and mineral buckets. No creep. I’m happy with the L RedX as part of my minimal intervention, easy care system and calving time is a doddle. It has to be, as I’ve another full time job. Calves are marked (rings and tags) in the field in first few days on my own in the evening. I consider them excellent quiet commercial cattle. The calves will wean at 8 months around 2/3+ dam BW with nowt but grass, bales and mineral buckets. They seem to find buyers in spring as weaners for reasonable money to warrant me stil doing it.
