    dirty harry

    Any idea what his seman is going for? I see it going for $20-50. I tried to contact a distributor and haven't heard back, I'm just wondering if the $20-30 pricings haven't been updated.

    Gestation date question

    Yay! Calf on the ground, small and a bull. So I am going to assume the calves go with the sires gestation period and not the cows. The calf that was 13 days late was probably 8-9 days late. I'll post photos later, thanks for all the help and putting up with my paranoia

    RC Roundup youtube video Hilarious

    Sorry if you get the song stuck in your head, but also a pretty interesting way of herding livestock. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qeuL5IGimCQ&list=UUCnaayHs0OpulJ6Ecf6cFWA&index=1&feature=plcp

    Gestation date question

    The female is a g13 structure x lemmon newsline and the sire is a calving ease simmental sire (I'm not sure of the genetics). The dams last calf weighed 65lbs and was out of bear mountain freight train, and 2 days early. Her late calf weighed 115lbs. her other calf was out of one of our bulls...

    Gestation date question

    Thanks for the input, I was hoping someone else was or has made half bloods. She was off by herself last night, like the last 4 nights, and nothing. In Dew time looks like he should be pretty safe, but this cow is a mile away from the corral so I am thinking we better bring her in closer. Fun fun

    Gestation date question

    This is driving me nuts. I swear she lost her plug three days ago. She is now 4 days overdue. What sizes are the in dew times?

    Gestation date question

    So I bred a fullblood angus cow to a simmental bull. The cow went 13 days late and usually goes within two days of her due date. I bred another PB angus cow to another simmental bull and she is also late, by 3 days. So my question is this; is their due date based upon the 283 day period that is...

    Triplets

    As a science project, which maine bulls and angus bulls have twinnages in their lineage. That structure cow is an awesome milker, if I could get her calf to twin every year and still look good................:)

    Triplets

    The cows sire probably has twins in his lineage, and the dam probably is the same way. We are running into a lot more twins than the norm and I'm thinking it's due to one of the bulls probably has the twin gene. A bull has millions of sperm, so the triplets sire wouldn't affect the chance of...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    lol, my uncle tried to go about it all dressed in camo, and they smelled him a mile away and ran. Just depends. Go up to them with a yipping jackrussel and a loud kubota and they don't seem to mind, but since every tom, dick, and harry has tried to get them dressed in camo and calling them in...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    They have a facebook page too, you are right on the target there, lol. They look like they cater to a certain type of people. I posted in Iowa CL just to see (lots of tractors there, maybe someone is selling one) and a guy said he hunts all over the world and is interested. The man that was a...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    The neighbor said he sells tags for $12000 and not to take less than $20,000-25,000. Dad has the exacts, I'm just the daughter who doesn't hunt. Dad wants a newer tractor so he thought a part trade with the elk would be something workable. It would just be cool to see our ranch in the record...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    Make an offer, the worst case scenario would be he would say no, and then have more bragging material to use on the neighboring ranchers, lol. Seriously, they have like 5 hour conversations about the elk when they all get together. Whenever grandpa can bring them up, irrigation meetings...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    Well...............it just depends. Our neighbor has about 60 in his front field and they wipe out the fence on a regular basis, and they eat as much as a cow does, so it's like adding 60 cows to your roster that you have to feed but never see any return on. We have been teased since they show...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    The big rack "mounting" was kinda stupid, in a sense I guess. It was both of the sheds from the big guy, and her boyfriend likes to go to africa to hunt, so he's big into mounting everything.......So he took the big sheds and mounted them and for some reason they are at his house right now. My...

    8x8 roosevelt elk

    wild and roaming. They sell LOP tag (Land owner preference) tags over here to help with the elk numbers. Alot of the locals sell the LOP tags in a lottery or just straight across. Some guys come from Alaska and hunt, it just depends. One of the ranchers focuses their fall on white tail deer...
