Well this morning I remembered to take the camera when I went out to check things over.. I will probably make a couple new threads due to the amount of pictures. The first picture is of BIG MAN, please note he is the daddy to all the calves you will be seeing posted from me today. BIG MAN is around 4.5 years old.. He is so calm and doesn't cause any problems and gets the job done. The second picture is of Jr. not related to be BIG MAN and was purchased March of this year so he isn't proven at this time because he doesn't have any calves on the ground yet.. Jr. is a pain something and is never quite, very much uplike BIG MAN. Jr. loves to be heard.. He acts like he wants to take on BIG MAN but he needs to not think so much and just stay in his section of the farm with his own cows.

Picture # 5 Replacement mollie face heifer calve. Some of you might remember my blind cow Sally had a bull calf born January 10th of this year, and, will I was hoping for a heifer calf but well it was a bull so I have choosen this mollie face heifer calve as a replacement. I sold Sally's bull calve about a month ago and he weighted 4.74 and brought 1.28.. There is probalby a better heifer calf in the group but I choose this one, well because of the mollie face and i wasn't wanting just a soild back replacement heifer calve.. What do yall think of her?

Over all i think all the calves born this year have growen out every well.. in the next section of pictures I will post a picture of our creep feeder that my brother built this week and we have now started creep feeding the calves getting ready to pull them from the cows in about a month,. We wanted them eatting before we pulled them.. Check out my other new thread with other pictures..Its been really hot and dry here in Tenn for the last 2 months.. please let me know what your think of my replacement heifer that I will be keeping...
