Jesse James Calves?

[Warrior10]

Anyone had any Jesse James calves? How are they, small? Shaped right?

On a first calf hair, shaped right, decent bone. UNBELIEVABLE hair.

I remember seeing that post now that you mention it, great looking calf especially out of a heifer! If you had to guess a BW what would you say?

60lbs easy. She was tiny. This year we're breeding all of our heifers to him

Thanks, thinking about doing the same....

The year before we bred heifers to Total Solution and got similar sized calves but not quite the muscle shape and substance she has, if that matters.

What type of heifers are these out of?

 

[farmboy]

the Total solutions were out of (the dam of the DH2 heifer, Sunseeker) and a Heat Wave. both were around 60lbs each.

Wow, impressed by that BW out of those pedigrees! Thanks

I know I'm putting my self out there.  Because I'm pretty happy with my results.  But here is goes.  I had a heifer calf by Jesse James and out of a Heat Wave daughter, shown extensively up to a little over a month before calving and she was fat.  To be safe, I did assist but just a hand, no chains, or anything, and I have MS so how much I actually did is really questionable.  I'm including pictures of the heifer prior to calving but after being turned out, a picture the the calf at approx. 16 hours and another of her 1 day shy of 4 weeks.  You may have seen her on Lautner's Blog several times.

We had a calf out of Jesse James this year out of a heifer. She is nice and small, easy for heifers and she has nice bone. I bred him to my BIM heifer, should be a cool calf.

Here is a Jesse James bull calf out of a Hairy Bear 1st calf heifer....

Update - sold the calf to a fellow SP'er and she won her class at a few shows before developing some foot problems related to feed intake
