THEN:
5 years ago our first heifer calf was born, the mama was one of the original 3 cows we purchased. We bought mama pregnant with this heifer; however, she was bred to the wrong bull and produced a very large calf due to a phynominon called "the F1 Vigor". To make matters worse, the calf was stuck on mama's pelvis and was backwards! To save mama and calf, Amanda had to move the calf legs around the pelvis and we had to pull the calf out... an extremely difficult and labor intensive process. The calf weighed 70 lbs compared to the other 2 calves she had at ~30 lbs!!! Something we didn't expect for our "first calf"...

NOW:
Today, 5 years later, we have 6 new born calves with 2 more due in a couple of weeks! Our beef program has blossomed over the years; Amanda is a Certified Artificial Insemination (AI) Tech and we had our first AI calf from one of our AI calves, our herd runs between 20 and 30 head, and we have put some excellent choice-prime beef on many tables. We continue to grow our Grass Fed Beef Program with high quality genetics in our cows and careful herd management. Hopefully our beef can become part of your family's meal planning soon!
