I am not 100% on if this is what the disease/infection actually is, but if so, I am in need of some help! We noticed that my yearling has been standing a funny and lying down almost all day, so we decided that we should get her checked out. We were getting some of our animals hooves trimmed and ...

So I realize this question has been asked a bunch of times on here, but when I search for answers I find nothing. If anyone out there has any insight as to what works the best, I would love to hear it. We bred ours to rocky balboa and had solid results. We bred her back to WMW so we will see how...

So I am starting to think that it may be cheeper to mix my own feed. Does anyone have any suggestions of what I should put in it. I am thinking of putting in oats, barley, flaked corn, beet pulp, minerals and salt, canola oil, lint seed oil, cotton seed. Thanks!

We turned our cows out to pasture 3 weeks ago, and every year one of our cows gets very bloated. It normally goes away after a few days but this year it is lasting loner then usual. Should I be worried and is there anything we can do for her?

So I bought a heifer from Kentucky and I live in New Brunswick so she had quite a drive. We got her home and her manure was really hard, it was to the point that it was like goat poop. We think that she was just really dehydrated. Her manure is fine now but she has a bit of a snotty nose and is...

Our ice chest cow calved last night and had a huge sunseeker bull calf. The calf had to be jacked out because it was so big, and now his hind legs are really weak. He is getting around ok but he is having a hard time picking the back right leg up. He is getting better each day but I want to make...

Here are a few pictures that I took today before the rain started. The first is the Ice Chest X Sugar Ray that I have posted on here before. She is bred to Sunseeker for a November calf. The next is a Full Throttle cow. She raised our steer that won Grand Champion at your big steer show. She is...

Well, it looks like the hurricane brought more bad luck then weather where I live. Yesterday I checked my heatwave heifer that I have been anxiously been waiting for to calve. Her udder was big but didn't have that big popped look. So I figured that she didn't need to go into the barn for a...

So I told myself for the longest time that I wold never do it, but I gave in and decided to give it a try. I bred my heatwave heifer to an Ali x WMW bull that is known for small calves that grow like weeds. We don't have an exact date on her because I showed her at the royal and when we took her...

How long do you keep your newborns and mothers in before letting them go to pasture. Do you even keep them in while calving. I ask because we recently calved a heifer out. We normally say no to calving heifers just because we have had some rotten luck but she was a keeper. She calved friday and...

Here is a picture of the Sunseeker X Who made who steer that we had some trouble with in about October. I havent done much to his hair yet but he does have quite a bit.

My wmw heifer is calving as we speak with a hardcore calf. What should I expect? Do you think it will be a big calf?

So we have a big cow that has really bad feet. We feed ear meal all winter two years ago. We didnt notice anything abou her feet until that summer when she would just limp around, so this winter we trimmed her feet and she was 100% better. But now that she is back on pasture she is limping and...

What do you think of her?

We turned the cows out to pasture the other day and there is one cow that has been bloating. Her stomach is not hard so I think that she just got a lot of grass, but I want to be sure that she will be ok. What do you guys think?

What would everyone say works best on who made who cows. She is very moderate and is freak fronted. I also wont use heatwave or monopoly.

Is it better for a heifer to be to deep or to tall. We have a bleedin purple heifer and she is really low to the ground. I will get some pics tomorrow but I am worried she may be to low.

What causes the back legs to not be strong enough to hold the calf. We had a calf last night and his legs are knuckling. We are going to put splints on them and seems to work well, but I dont understand why this happens. Thanks

There seems to be more andmore club calves that have hereford in them, whats up with that?
