New Heifer Born At Taylor-Made Ranch

Say it with me y’all:

“Awwwwwwww…”

We’re so appreciative of dam #310 waiting until we returned from a trip before she calved. She’s a good mama and she’s doing a great job of taking care of her new heifer.

 

Welcome to the ranch, little one! You’re gonna LOVE it here!!

Dangerously Hot Weather During A.I.

Ten days ago when we started the heifer protocol for A.I. we were experiencing below-normal temps that were forecast to continue for about 30 days. Well the weathermen were wrong!

Today’s A.I. day and there’s a dangerous heat/humidity combination out there – going up to a feels-like temp of 108 degrees! Knowing a couple of days beforehand what weather we’d be dealing with, we purchased a canopy to cover the A.I. Tech during his hours of work in the chute.

Ranch life, gotta love it!

Dangerously hot weather as Taylor-Made Ranch A.I.s heifers. #TaylorMadeRanch

We’re using Churchill Red Bull for the Hereford sire. He’s got impressive stats – calving ease +7.1, low birthweight -.4

We’re also using a Silvy Angus sire – SA David Harris 138 so a couple of these heifers can calve pure F1 Black Baldy calves. Calving ease +13 and birthweight is -.8

Our A.I. protocol includes a double A.I. session for each heifer 6-8 hours apart. So tonight we’ll bring them through the chute again and increase our odds of a positive pregnancy.

Y’all stay safe out there!

TMR Building Better Genetics Though A.I. Program

Today we’re sending a batch of our heifers through the 10-day protocol to perform A.I.

We utilize A.I. to continue building better genetics in our herd.

These specifically-chosen heifers are the offspring of some of our most productive females. We’ll probably be using Churchill Red Bull 200Z for the high-profile sire. He’s high in calving ease, growth & udder scores. And according to Champion Genetics he was named the Grand Champion Hereford Bull at the 2013 Houston Stock Show.

We’re looking forward to seeing his offspring!

LOOK! A Super-DARK Registered Heifer

We get lots of compliments on the dark red coat many of our Herefords have. We love the darker colors too. But this girl? Now THIS girl is one of the darkest red calves we’ve ever had!

So if you’re looking for a dark-red registered Polled Hereford heifer, don’t let this beautiful girl pass you by! She’s already registered with the American Hereford Association. And her immunizations & boosters have been administered as part of our rigorous herd-health program. She’s as gentle as she can be and ready to become a vital part of your herd.
