My Heat Wave heifer in my avatar photo just had her 1st calf sired by the simmi bull Built Right. 60lb birth weight out of a HW heifer, I was impressed on Built Right's calving ease as he was light and born unassisted. Nice little all black heifer calf. Was up nursing within 2 hours. Got too dark for me to get a picture tonight, will get one tomorrow. I'm excited about this one with the maternal side of Built Right and hoping to have a good build from HW, not that Built Right is nothing to shake a stick at. All the horror stories out there on HW heifers, I was very happy to see her have a 60lb calf unassisted in under 2 hours of labor. Will keep her as a replacement heifer for breeding clubbies.

Picture of her laying down. The wind is blowing bad today so she laying down next to the hay feeder to stay out of the wind. Will try and get a picture of her standing later.
