and all four are in calf.  :excited: :excited: :excited: :excited:

Fourth calves for Breeze and Blizzard, second for Annie and first for Bonnie. Vet reckons they're all at the same stage of pregnancy, more or less. Bull went in 23rd July so first calves after 2nd May next year. My guess is that he nicked them all pretty quick after going in. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Congrats! Do you use a bull or do you AI them. With buffaloes AI isn't very successful so we have to use a bull.
the most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, loving concern.

Bull - now beefburgers, but he's left his legacy  :thumbsup:
