Walks Alone's first calves!

[Tooker]

what are you asking price wise on those embryos you have by walks alone? thanks

After talking with Wade this weekend unfortunately they are no longer for sale! Sorry but, we are flushing that cow right now to HW! Sullivan's sold numerous high seller's out of this mating. I will PM a price on those to you!

Just had a WA calf.  Pretty hard pull, still down, but alive!  I will post latter when/if he gets up.

What kind of cow?  Also, sex and weight.  Thanks.

120 # bull calf out of full flush x maine cow.  good haired, but still down :'(

Double bred full flush may not help on that birthweight.
But with his breeding and width  i would say  have to use him on a smooth shouldered cow.  And with his breeding with f ull flush, draft pick and heat wave all are known to have birth weight issues.

That's a big calf for even a mature cow to have.  If he won't get up to nurse, I would give him some colosrum soon.  Either by bottle or tube.  Those big guys usually take a while to come around but I bet he makes it.

Sure sounds like HW's replacement to me. I couldn't help it!

Sometimes the pulls can really mess them up if their really hard.

Ive seen a calf get its spine severed during a pull.

is WA a double bred FFlush out of heat wave?

Those Walks Alone pregnancies on the No Bull Sale look pretty cheap now!!!

Ty Webster had a nice steer at the Expo that I believe I heard was a Walks Alone

Unless that calf was two weeks old i highly doubt he was Walks Alone.

Sam1988 sorry to here the bad news.  :'(

Walks alone is not a double bred full flush.  He is a heat wave out of a f ull flush draft pick cow.  The calf that apparently just died was a walks alone out of a full flush cow making that baby a double bred full flush.


Ty websters calf is not and can not be a walks alone calf.  First calves being born this spring.  It could be one of the full sibs to walks alone.  I saw two of them last fall.

I've heard WA has problems with birthweights. Has neone else heard this?

 

[farmboy]

I swear more great ones die than live! About a week ago we had a great one, in the words of Kroupa " That one was breathtaking, he was so good he forgot to take a breath"
