    Sick Calves

      I recently purchased three steers from out west and brought them down to Florida. Since then, the calves have had runny noses and a cough. I vaccinated them with 8-way black leg and triangle four even though the seller said the fella he got them from said he had already done that. I have been...

    Does anyone have any thoughts on Gigolo Joe? Has anyone had any experience in using him as a sire?

    Don't know Tx. From what I understand, the steer died a week or so after the show. The state did an autopsy and found out that it had rabbies. Then they back tracked with the owners to find out where it was stalled and tied out while at the show and contacted everyone that may have been in...

    Were about an hour and ten minutes south of russ' place. We take our calves to him to get their hooves trimmed and he takes care of most of my A.I. needs. He's pretty good people.

    Dying heifers black

    When I have done this in the past, after the application is complete, I will stand them in front of a fan for a few hours until the are dry. Once they are dry, rinse them until there is no more black color coming off and then blow dry them. Once that is complete, I've never had a problem with...

    It takes about 5 1/2 hrs for us. On the rabbies issue, we had a family in our county that had a steer and two heifers up there last year. They found out that on the last night there, they tied up face to face with the animal that died. The state quarantined all of their animals for six months...

    With the cost of everything getting so far out of hand, I have to imagine that there will be less calves than in the years past. I know we have four families going up there from Fl. I'm hauling ten calves up there so we dont have to haul as many trailers. Were all going to cook out every night...

    What will you be showing? My daughter will be showing a steer(850 lbs) and two heifers. If gas prices dont let up, this may be our last year for this show.

    Dying heifers black

    We have a nice Dr. Who heifer that has that brown tint mixed into her black hair. I plan to dye her black again this weekend. Problem is......she has four white socks. If I used vet wrap to cover the white during the spray process, and then make sure she is completely dry before I rinse her off...
