Looking for any experience or thought on this bull. Thinking of using him on some 1/2 simm angus cows.

synchronization is a handy and fairly efficient tool. however, i believe that if a cow was at the wrong part of their natural cycle (I believe its ether right before or right after natural heat), they would not respond to the sync the way expected. usually we saw these non responders being bred...

I wouldn't have a problem so much about semen interest on a bull. it just seems to me that it if I bought a heifer that was good enough to flush that after she has a calf I am going to want to flush her myself, or get her bred back quickly. that said I don't see how it would ever really be...

While looking for heifers at sales and online sales ive been kind of turnned off by the special terms of the sale that they want to retain 2 flushes on all the heifers in the sale...i feel I could understand a few in the sale. I just felt like if they wanted to keep all those gem tics they maybe...

im looking for some reg angus foundation cows possibly to flush also. anyone have some suggestions where i could find some good ones.. im in ohio... I would prefer to not have to drive too far west but i'd go a ways. 

I have never done this but I have heard of doing it to heifers.. but I would think that doing it to a steer calf would make so he couldn't urinate.. I don't know this to be true but it would be a concern of mine.

the other two calves were thick and hairy plenty of guts and depth but kinda short and squaty ... they looked really cool as babies but they never really got big enough frame to go any where and maybe a touch coarse in the shoulder so I was hoping that this mating might get a calf a little more...

the other two calves that she has had were just out of my shorthorn herd bull.. now I finally got her ai'd and people are telling my I made a big mistake the way I bred her... I would say she is moderate framed, made nice and not a freak. I bred her to yellow jacket... am I really that crazy???

I know a receip should be a good milker, quiet, good mother and so on..but I was wondering if they needed any special registration if were using purebred embryos or anything like that...or just choose cow to put eggs in and go from there?

ammo price is high right now because with all this gun control debate, all the guys that would normally buy a box or two went out and bought a case or two... or more.. so the next guy does the same thing and pretty soon ammo cannot be made and distributed fast enough to keep up with the people...

cattle were not made to be on concrete. I try and keep them off of it. I have concrete just for our indoor washrack and clipping area. all pens are hard pack dirt with bedding. we have used wood chips, sawdust, sand even rubber mulch in the cooler. most worked well. some types of sand we used...

I cant  find any dates on the website that say when the display bulls will be there. does anyone know the dates?

I have not seen any calves yet, but I can say I saw him at Powers as a calf and he looked awesome from day one. can't wait to see some great smokies!

Fulton county ,Ohio the dairy steers have their own show separate from the beef.

I don't know if you are going to have a drain or just let it run off the pad. when I put in a washrack (mine is inside but this would aply anyhow) I put the drain against the wall and the tie rail back from the wall about 20 inches. I loved that the water going forward I wasn't always standing...
