    LT RIO BRAVO GRANDSON

    I think you are right, if we focus only on big rib eye and growth we loose calving ease and end up with to much frame and mature weight. In my book calving ease must be first and after you keep the ones who grows wells. Milk is important but not too much. We need a new calving ease bull each 2...

    What's the earliest preemie you've had born and live?

    In 2005 we had one 40 days ahead, one 33 days and another 20 days, they all lived well. In 2006 we lost some that were ahead so we test and found lepto, since that time we vaccine for that and see no problems.

    first set of twins this year

    We have a 2 years old heifer from a mixed twin couple with a calf this year. I know it's rare but she was bigger then the male at calving and she cycle around one year old so we gave her a try. She was from a very good mother and develop very well. I remember another heifer safe in calf that we...
