27 days. Probably give it a bit more time than that before claiming a success.
Your right,
32 days 41 litres, still want more.

come back if she is a 4th calver by Spring 2020, high yielding heifers don't pay bills, high yielding fertile cows do...

Re:
What Montross son do people like? I was debating buying some Duke or Missle, Jedi is bit too expensive.

We just ordered some Duke sexed. Used Missle as a test sire.
Our oldest Mogul has calved for a third time at 3 years 9 monthes, just scored 88 points and has only seen three straws of semen in her life. Never a high cell count either.
In all we have had 5 moguls calve and had one dud in the group.

Re: Montross
We have some nice Premium calves.

My Montross daughters are breeding age heifers, and they have all taken at least 2 breedings to get pregnant. Which makes me grumpy.

I'm using jedi on heifers and a few cows, also using hang-time on heifers.
Seems to be a few sons coming through with decent component percentages. Sandy valley scenario and ssi megaman look decent, megaman also reduces stature could be a really handy bull

How about high yielding fertile heifers that stick around to be high yielding cows?

Re: Montross
My Montross scored VG in udder. Milks really well. Solid, strong cow with no scc issues. First record at 1-10 was 24,500 lb.
