Embryos

We are using ET to increase the number of offspring from our best, proven cows. Our hope is to use embryo transfer to improve the quality and uniformity of our herd and cattle we sell. Our donors will be proven cows with documented fertility and performance on several offspring. We want "Dams of Distinction" in all our pedigrees.

2004

WPH MS DYNA 513

Our first donor, a Dam of Distinction and top producer. Her mother is pictured below after giving birth to her 14th calf. 513 has proven herself to be an excellent bull and female producer. She has nicked well with every bull we have used with her.

2005

WPH MS SKYWALKER 323

Dam of the 513 cow. With 16 natural offspring is the most prolific cow in our herd. She is one of the super cows. Still has a youthful look and raises exceptional calves. She was born 2-8-1991. Take a look at this production record. We no longer have this cow, but she has and will have a positive influence on our herd for years to come.
