From 1982 to now, we have only missed three years of calving recips. What can we say? Our home program of raising about 200 ET calves a year stays full. We also have new ideas.

​

Our son-in-law and daughter, Dan and Lacy Hanson, in Lusk, Wyoming, introduced a new program that fits Wagyu breeders well but not limited to that breed alone.

​

They will breed Angus heifers in June and sell the pregnant recips in the fall. The benefits are apparent:

​

-Calve when the weather is warm so the lightweight calves which have trouble with temperature regulation are good.

​

-Smaller teat size so the little mouths can get ahold.

​

-A little less milk so the calf is less prone to diarrhea and over-eating disease, and the cow is less prone to mastitis.

​

Mothers in this program are less-experienced so may require some coaching.
