I haven't had time to take many pictures this year as life has gotten so busy, but I am positive this is my (our)  best calf crop yet .  I have attached the picture of one of my April Herbourne B Manitoba Gus calves taken at 4 months he is the natural calf out of one of the two newly promoted donors Diamond Minnie Searle 11S (we implanted 2 Balmoral Oak's Eagle 9X embryos and she is Ai'ed back to Diamond Belvedere 29B for her 8th natural calf).  Also is a picture of a Diamond Minnie Carrie 21C who is out of a Prophecy Daughter of Minnie Searle and also by Manitoba Gus this photo was taken of her at 3 months

Both calves look really interesting would be neat to see how they develop!

This little Gizmo bull out of a Haumont cow has really started growing on me. Don't mind the eye patch it is off and eye is back to normal.

Here are a couple of mine that I like a lot. Both are sired by GS&J Captain Rob 3x. The 517e bull is out of the same cow as A&T/JTM Sentinel Prime and the 518e bull is a 3/4 shorthorn bull.

We had a lot of white calves this year! My favourite heifer is this white Paintearh Boomer 58Y out of a Northern Legend 3N daughter. The red heifer is another favourite by Boomer out of a Diamond Regal Legend 4R cow.

Okotoks, I would really like to see a recent picture of 11W's heifer calf from last year that you showed with her at Agribition.  I kind of fell in love with that calf even if the judge did not love the pair.
 
These are my to favorites for the year, the herf is a Harlem Shake and the black Baldy is a Walks Alone, both from PB hereford cows.

Based on the pedigree alone that one should be a powerhouse.  She already looks to have a lot of length and mass.  May not be "freaky" in her front but in my mind that's a good thing.
 
Thanks cowboy nyk figured you would like her we seem to like the same type of cattle. Your heifers a really good one I love the length she carries. I was wrong about the cow she's out of she's a wcc precision j239 instead of grid topper
 
This is a tf Cyrus x monopoly/legally blonde hfr. Her dam is a full sib to Griswold's no surprise bull. She was just 2 weeks weaned in this pic so still a bit green.
