Forage developed Grass Heifer pairs for Sale
I hate to jinx us, but so far we have only had to intercede once (backwards presentation) while calving a group of almost 100 heifers. We still have about 25 to go, but we are proud of them calving without difficulty and being watchful young mothers.
We will have 60 spring calving heifer pairs available starting in April. These girls have had to work to make it this far. The heifers were turned in with DGG calving ease red and black angus bulls. (90% will be bred by sons of Calvo Warrior 50a) The girls were between 50-60% of their adult weight, and only exposed for 60 days. 78% of those exposed were bred, and of those bred, 89% were settled in the first 30 days. Fertility is first and foremost here at DGG. These are multi-generation grass cattle that are built to survive on the low energy grasses and humid environment of the southeast. Once grown, we expect them to stay fat year round under low-moderate inputs, wean a high percentage of their bodyweight, and most importantly, breed back on time. They are angus, red angus, and angus cross commercial cattle. Pairs will be priced from $2300-$2600. Volume discounts available.
The video below was taken on 10/12/18 and the heifers have been on the last of the season's bahia, hybrid bermuda, and mineral. NO SUPPLEMENTS. I'm extremely pleased with how well they are converting these forages.
