We have our first six calves on the ground--3 heifers, 3 bulls--4 of them are ET calves.    We have two Bloodstone X Dream Lady 420 calves(one  bull  and a really good heifer.  We also have an Ali heifer out of our Ace of Diamonds/MAV Felecia heifer, a Gus heifer out of Myrtle Bo, a Red Vision bull calf out of SS Cathy, and a very good K&A Spice Maintainer/Shorthorn Plus bull out of our Myrtle Bo/Vortec cow.  I'm very pleased with them overall!!  The Bloodstone bull calf was 115 pounds and he's had a hard time recovering from a difficult birth but he's starting to come around now and the others are doing really well.  Our second calving season will be in May.  We're expecting a Pioneer calf out of Myrtle Bo(natural calf), our Trump cow is bred to TM Gus, and our Vortec/Lovely Lady was bred by our clean up bull--Oakbar Sonic(ArSuLu Tonic X our Sonny/Charmer cow)

No good days for pictures yet---soon!!

Congrats on what sounds like a nice set of calves. I'm also looking foward to seeing the pictures and right now, I'm not sure what I am wanting to see more... pictures of your calves or green grass!  We have had a cold miserable winter. No extreme conditions, just extended periods of cold, windy and snow.
