JIT will Lot 46 be the first Pioneer by Elsie cross or do you have some on the ground already? I guess they are 3/4 sibs to the 3a and 3b lot.
This will be the first ones offered in Canada. We flushed Elsie's Jade to Pioneer once before and the embryos all sold to Scotland, so there could be some over there. Stumpy from Kansas, also flushed J-Lo 3T to Pioneer,this summer and I am not sure if he has implanted any yet.
Are the first Pioneers in production?

Dan, I have one Pioneer daughter in production from the Melba Niam cow family that I bought from Grant in the Agribition sale 2 years ago as a heifer calf.
She has been a very good female, quite moderate with an excellent udder.
She has weaned two really good calves now, I showed her Timeline heifer calf at Agribition last year and sold her, this year I'm planning on showing a really neat Timeline bull calf out of her as well.
I have had a few ET calves sired by Pioneer as well, I sold 1/2 interest in one last week and another heifer calf I'm consigning to the Agribition sale this year.
Very nice pair of females.
