Ready to wean calf off of cow and cow just completed heat cycle, but I want to wait on AI till April.  If I put her in  pasture where the bull is, will she stay on same 21 day cycle or does weaning calf throw off the cycle and come in heat.  I use natural heat so just trying to avoid lute shot...

Haven’t seen BDR in the news lately. Two week old heifer

Any Maine Breeders using him with success?  I have a moderate 50% Maintainter cow should work well with him, but is he throwing any structure issues? Thanks !

My kid has only shown heifers in Jr Shows for Texas Majors.  She will  be showing Jr shows on SA and Houston but we decided to enter in open show for Fort Worth What are the pros and cons of the open shows?  Seems less crowded and more laid back but may not be less crowded since you can take as...

I'm picking up a couple of heifers for myself in Okla, hauling to Gulf Coast area.  I've had inquiries from other people to haul back a few animals so they wouldn't have to make the trip.  Would $ 100 a head be fair? Thanks!

Just got the Simmy papers and saw online where our heifer has the DL and OH Gene.  Is that anything to be worried about.  She is black with some red highlights.. The subject has been discussed but couldn't find whether it's something to be worried about.  Thanks

I've seen several sale listings on Simmentals that describe that this heifer's pedigree is Dream On free or no Dream On in this pedigree.  Are they talking about it in a way that you could use the bull one her since he has such a long history or some other reason. Thanks!

How do breeders with high volume registering heifers and keep organized? For example, if I purchase an embryo, how would the Shorthorn assoc know that I provided accurate info after calf was born?  Also, if I AI a cow and run cleanup bulls in the herd, how do I know I have entered the right...

Interested to hear from the Simmy Breeders if our Heifer is too "steery"  Pictures are tough but some of you guys have a trained eye.  She is plenty sound.

Just curious about everybody's experience with this.  This is the first year that I've put a round bale for my daughter's steer and it seems that he spends an awful lot of time with his head in the bale.  He's about 1,050 and I'm feeding 21 lbs a day and he will leave 1 to 2 bls left every...
