Last year I had a Jesse James heifer out of my big, winning Heat Wave x Meyer cow (She turned out phenomenal btw). She was 75# at birth and grew, grew, grew. I did assist, but then her mother was 1 month off the show circuit and fat. Secondly, unless they just pop them out, when I busy with something else, I won't have one born unassisted. I need to be there. I check frequently. Even camp out so I can check them through the night. Now this year I have one due out of my PB Angus heifer who is a frame score 7+, great profile, had the width from hooks to pin and has a good belly on her but she doesn't have the hip and is narrow up front. She'll be 23 months when she calves...First pic is the morning after my JJ heifer was born. The second is the cow and calf in the hot Sept. Texas sun (calf is 5 months).
