Jeez that is a beast!

if your heifers are younger I would highly recommend Precon that's what I use on my Angus heifers to start.

Used No Worries a few years back on my not so feminine cows and I liked the result.

Yup try molasses.

Welcome!

Not sure on that one. Ive had a few freemartin heifers that were fertile so it could be true. According to my vet 90% of twin heifers are fertile

You know the heifers and bull will likely not be fertile?

When i get a difficult calf I just leave the halter on, as long as they aren't out on pasture. They will learn that when they go forward pressure on their head is released (they will step on the rope, and then walk forward) Sometimes you just get ones that are especially dumb, sadly. Good luck!

She is pretty! Too bad I dont need another one lol.

So you probably aren't getting this in time but I am going to blab anyway. When I did 4H judges would ask me this a lot. This breeding heifer is a pretty recent one for me so I will go off of her. 'Tell me about your project.' 'this is a 202__ Charolais Angus cross. She gets blah blah pounds...
