    Safe to palpate at 7 months?

    We did it with one we thought might have twins. We had no issue and the vet had no qualms about doing it. She was a little over 7 months.

    Nutrition vs Genetics

    Well fed animals that are structurally poor, unsound moving and poor converters of feed are just well fed culls. Choosing the right animal(s) to pass on desirable genetics will always get you further in the end.

    Any interest in Red Purebred Maines

    FYI- We had the reserve Grand Bull at the American Royal last fall that happened to be a solid red PB Maine Bull. We have his half sister and full brother (et)  ready for Junior Nationals in a week. They are solid red too. We have had a ton of interest in our red calves.

    News law -Changes-to-child-labor-laws-hurt-farmers "UPDATE"

    They would not arrest the kids, they would arrest the organizers. If the folks that host and organize these are at risk, then they wont have the shows. From reading the proposed rule change they would also go against the parents or other responsible adult if they felt there was a violation...
