    AI-ing a Second Calf Heifer/Cow

    Hi everyone, I have a current show heifer/cow who is ready to be rebred, only problem is that I don't know how to do it myself, and I just don't have $500 to take her to a vet. Anyone know anyone who could help out? Or any advice? Thanks in advance.

    First Calf Ever!

    Yesterday morning my show heifer had her first calf! She's an  Eye Candy X Dr. Who x Charolais who I bred to Fat Tony (Red Angus). The baby is in the mid to high 70s, born unassisted and healthy. I'm very pleased with how she's mothering (not overly broody) and milking.

One of my concerns...

    Breeding A First-Calf Heifer

    Hey y'all! <cowboy> I have an Eye Candy X Char/Chi heifer who I will be breeding in November. This will be her first calf, so calving ease is a must.

    Chi Heifer- Opinions?

    I'm new to the show circuit and I picked out this heifer, my concern is her depth of body. Is the depth of body something I can change, or something that will come with age? She's only 5 months old right now, so I don't want to rush anything, just hoping for some thoughts/opinions. She's an Eye...
