We have a heifer that we will be breeding this coming spring, she's not extremely straight in her hocks but she's straighter than I'd like her to be. She's a first for us so I'm looking for a bull that is let's say soft jointed and has some set to his legs or is more know to put set in his...

Curious of what you guys think of this bull. Anyone used him? Would live to see calves that anyone may have. Thinking about breeding my 3yr olds to him.

Considering using this guys on a few 2 year old cows. What's y'all's thoughts on him? What's his pros and cons. Would love to see some calves if anyone has any by him.

So forgive me I'm trying to learn and understand epds more and more, everytime I talk with someone about them I always take away some new. I have a decent understanding and how they work. So to get to the meat and potatoes of what I'm asking is I look at these bulls  such as Dameron First...

Here's a picture of our feed formula. What could we change to help put some fat cover on our heifers and cows? Or is it a good all around ration just leave it how it is. We figure if we could up the fat% we could always add fiber such as beet pulp, depth charge to hold them if they start to get...

Here is our daughters registered simangus heifer. We will be breeding her in December. We wanted to ask what bull is out there that we could breed her to to soften her up and just help her produce a better calf. We've been looking at a few and just want more opinions.

Got some semen from this bull and was wondering what type of cows he works best on. Gonna use him on some heifers

A good friend of the family has got 15 commercial cows. 10 of them have calved or at close to calving the others are due in December. He wants to give AI-ing a go and he got his hands on some Boyd On Target semen for cheap. He is aware of the fact that he is a CAC. But the calves he gets out of...

Just want to get some thoughts on what bull would you use one this heifer? She is Wide Range daughter out of a Upgrade cow. I feel she needs some softness and some drop to her lower 1/3 and clean up her shoulder a bit. Was thinking maybe Swinger or northern made 10D....or just use a low birth...

Ok we have a few heifers that we are going to be breeding to a low birth weight Angus bull for thier first calf. Then on thier 2nd calf still use a low birth weight bull but maybe a step up on calf size then for thier third breeding we want to breed them to a extreme low birth weight charolais...

I know this bull isn't a big named show bull by any means but we got a cane of semen given to us by a really close family friend. So I couldn't turn it down. That being said what are your thoughts and opinions on him and what kind of progeny is he producing? We are planning to use him on a few...

This is our daughters 4H project for this year. Please let me know what you think of her.

So a friend of the family sold us his old semen tank for a good price and threw in a cane of Hy-Veiw Phantom 909 and I'm not real familiar with him, what little bit I've found on him I like what I see, but was wondering if anyone could tell me more on him, pros cons. His numbers look awesome but...

Got some people asking me to work their cows, less than 50 head they would buy the vaccines, wormers etc, I would just have to work them how much would you charge? Per hour or per cow?

So I went to look at a 4yr old cow with a good friend of mine. He's in the same boat as me and starting to build a registered herd. She is a half sister to First-In-Goal. Was a 4h show heifer and did well for herself.  She's a big soggy cow and real easy on the eyes. Any insights to her pedigree...

Ok so I'm looking at two SimAngus heifers and I'm trying to figure out which one to go with. I wish I had gotten pics when I went to look at them the first time but I was rushed for time. I'm gonna try to get back out there Thursday so hopefully I'll be able to snap a few pics then. Now I know...

We currently found one of our cows when we fed tonight cause she didn't come up. She's standing kinda drawn up with her head low and when she walks she drags her toes some. She had a bull calf March 18th and hadn't noticed any problems until today. My question is she retaining liquid from...

This is our new heifer we purchased can I get some thoughts and opinions.

What bull could we use, (looking for a pure breed Angus not really a clubby)to help level this heifer out and put more bone on her frame?

OK so I had someone tell me to try injectable wormer that it was better than pour on.... My thoughts are how so? Pour on is easy, less invasive cause I don't have to give my herd a shot that can 1 possibly cause an abscess and 2 scar the meat if the animal is intended for slaughter and 3 it...
