Just curious to what the other side of the pedigree was on the two heifers? And as stated, the first ones will calve this spring.

His oldest heifers will be just starting to calve now for the first time.

He's an 08 model. Introduced in 09 first calves in 10 they would be bred in 11 and Calve in 12. This will be their second calf crop....those that rebred.

I calved out two Walks Alone first calf heifers back in August.  They did a good job raising their calves and are both bred back.

I've calved out a couple of Carnac's.  They really make good mothers and raise good calves and breed back quick.  Hopefully walks does the same.
