[Part Timer]

I have two I80 heifers that I am keeping back. Its seem to be getting hard to get around Ali. Looking for something that will be marketable.

I don't have any but a buddy of mine bred his to Shiver and that is one of his better calves. I guess it all depends on whether or not you want to keep them maine or go another direction.

A lot of people we know with them are using Gucci.

Direct Whiskey has been doing a real good job. Small at birth but at weaning time some of the better calves.

This is our I80 right after she calved this spring.  It is the only one we had, but I really like her.  She has a really nice Bouncer heifer calf that we are going to show and keep as a replacement.  She milked well and did a nice job.  We bred her back Direct Hit.  I have another bred heifer that I bred to Bouncer as well.

We have raised and sold several I80's and a lot of them have reached puberty at 6 to 9 months old.  Anybody else have that experience.
