    color questions. Can a Char produce a blue roan?

    Don't know if this helps answer your question but I have a smoke cow out of JPJ. Her mother is out of Yahtzee and is a light colored smoke. We bred her to I-80 and got a dark blue roan.

    I-80

    We had 2 first time calvers have I-80 bull calves. One was about 80 pounds the other was about 90. I believe the mothers effected their birthweights. Only pulled the 90 pounder. Were easy feeding, great disposition, good hair and sound. I am very excited to see how they do this show season and...

    April Maintainer heifer*price reduction*

    Nice heifer. I'm interested to know what her birthweight was and how hairy she was before the clip job. I haven't heard of any calves out of him and thought of using him on some heifers after seeing some progeny. Thanks and best of luck finding a home for her and showing her this year. Looks...

    HELP need advice: cow having trouble after calving

    You definitely need to call your vet. I had a similar problem this fall. The vet finally felt the calf. The cow's uterus tore and the calf was under her rumen. For the cow's sake...call the vet! I hope you have better luck than I did.

    What is in your tank you wish you had never bought ?

    I'll add another bull to this list. We bought a cane of Money Shot. I thought I really did my homework on this one. We bred 4 mature cows to him. 1 didn't catch (which I thank my lucky stars), 1 calved 2 weeks early and I have never seen a calf that crippled. I seriously almost cried when I saw...

They are all pretty quiet and will be halter broke, washed, and clipped (if desired) by the time they leave the farm. They will be weaned probably...

    Ali Daughters

    We have 2 Ali cows that we raised. I used Smokin Joe to mine for her 1st calf, which from the calf crops he has had, I'm probably not going to press my luck breeding heifers to him again. I got a 85# heifer from that which I kept who is due in August for a Gucci calf. The other we bred the 1st...

    I-80

    It would really depend on the heifer's breeding and her size, etc. The first one was a out of a JPJ X Yahtzee heifer. She is a big girl 1300-1400#; the calf was about 90 pounds, easy pull, 4 days late. The other was out of a Milkman heifer (moderate framed heifer about 1200#) Her bull calf was...

    Body Clipping Animals

    I'm so glad someone posted this. I have been wondering the same thing. Also I was wondering if body clipping your cows and heifers before setting them up to breed help with conception rates? I have some pretty hairy ones and our conception rate was not the best last summer. We assumed it was due...

    I-80

    How old is he and what kind of cow is he out of? We had two out of 1st time calvers and are extremely happy with them both. Have a couple coming this fall out of some heifer so we're looking forward to the ones coming in August. :) This is a very nice looking calf. Hope he does well for ya!
