Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

I don't honestly think at her age now anyone would be interested and I am not going to knowingly going to pass on an evidently "barren" cow. She's worth more as a hamburger cow to me.

who is it ?

who is it ?

Janet who is 18 now I believe.

and the meat would still be good ?

would be "flavorful" and honestly that's what happens to most old/barren beef and dairy cattle already.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

You have had her for 2-3 yrs now right ? Old 19 was older and gave you a calf ? Its really hard to remember it all Twist.

 

[Granny Hatchet]

Because you would be grinding the "steaks" up with all the rest of it right ?
Dont laugh at me, what part of a cow is hamburger meat ?

she came in that second package deal out of Minnesota. Along with 19, and Maiah my cost for the 4 of them was 4k. So far I have 5 calves out of 19 and Maiah (mother/daughter) 19 was 20 and in about 2 months would have been 21.

Janet would NOT still be here but I so very much want her bloodlines. If Tibbit's would be the sire I could even keep a bull calf as a future herd sire. IF Porter is needs to be a female.

usually the trimmings from the other cuts UNLESS its an old one and them most of the animal is ground for burger and sausage and such. I would probably try keeping out the ribeyes and T-bones

Maybe she was a free martin.

well we see whos got $20. and who dont ! hahaa

Here ya go!

I am going to actually lock her up with Tibbits next breeding season. And a couple other cows. If she is open after that then its grinder time.

If she doesn't catch, how will you know if it's her fault? Is Tibbits proven?
