How’s he for calving? I’d love to see what he looks like now was a fair lump as a yearling.

Every bull melts a bit I think they look better in there working clothes tbh. He looks a fair lad there tho. Hope your happy with his calves.

Been away from a forum for a very very long time. Here are some photos from this year calving season.

Today born Tomschoice Onslow heifer from simxlimx heifer. 283days gestation, around 45kg, calved unassisted.

VRB (Verbeterd Roodbont) cross heifer from angusxlimx cow, 287days gestation, 51,5kg, unassisted.

3 weeks old limx heifer from a stock bull.

9 days old piedmontese cross heifer from limxbbxdairy cow. 280 days gestation.
Having way more heifers this year than bulls so far. Hopefully it'll change soon. Still around 45 cows left to calve.

What a difference a say makes, traumatic entry the world to 24hrs later commuting thro the barrier and pottering around the yard.

Which one are you going to take off?

 

[ladycrofter]

None yet! She's coping well which is a s big a surprise as the 3 arriving! Scanned for 2 so thankfully was getting fed for multiples.

Almost three weeks old heifer. Should be a nice one in the future!

Life Cycles Live for KS2 (7-11 year olds)

My friend Paula Matthews from Surrey hosts the film crew with her Belted Galloways (wish mine looked that well fleshed right now) ; watch the entire film or the Belties start at 12:44
