Well here are some of my calves. Most born July/August and due to the drought most were weaned at the end of November. They have done well but the weights are over 50kg down on usual but I guess they will pick it up in time.
The first Q12 is an LD Capitalist son out of a Connealy Earnan daughter. I have only kept 3 bull calves entire this year.
Q1 a SS Niagara daughter out of a SAV Thunderbird daughter, her mother is much the same, a real little workhorse, no coincidence that her mother is M1, her 1st calf was P2 and then Q1 so the whole family is at the top of the calving list.
Q4 a Musgrave Apache son out of a GAR Prophet daughter
Q3 a Musgrave Apache daughter out of a Sydgen Black Pearl daughter.
Q6 Another Musgrave Apache daughter out of a GAR Prophet daughter. I don't mind these Apache calves.
Q15 By a homebred bull, a SAV Renown son out of a Equator A241 daughter (Australian bull, his daughters have been very good.). She is a bit younger than the others being by the cleanup bull. She has a lot of length to her.
Q14 A LD Capitalist son out of a daughter of homebred bull, a Future Direction 4268 son. A bit of white there but no Prophet in the pedigree.
Q22 A Sydgen Enhance daughter out of a SAV Thunderbird daughter. Afair bit younger than the others, probably late November.
P3 I'll throw in a couple of the previous year heifers due to calve in July. This is an EF Commando daughter, she is in calf to Basin Rainmaker.
P10 A Bruns Blaster daughter out of an Equator A241 daughter and in calf to SS Niagara
P1 A Hoover Dam daughter out of a Sydgen Black Pearl daughter. In calf to Baldridge Compass.
One of the other projects I'm working on, clearing some land, about 12 acres. It is part of the 650 acre scrub block next door that I bought 15 mths ago. We have tight restrictions on clearing but this small area was white on the vegetation map so it has come down before they change their mind. I hope to fence it for roos and make it a cultivation paddock. I just started burning the rows on Saturday and next one goes up on Wed if the forecast stays true.
