If you can call a vet preferably.  We have had to like that this spring that couldnt stand up without us holding them up and our vet told us to do this and it was amazing the turn around on these calves from acting like they wouldnt make it through the night and an hour or two later they could...

F5CHASER- I am pretty sure you have the Heatwatch 1.  We had the Heatwatch 1 and then they upgraded ours to the Heatwatch 2.  The main difference is the buffer that connects to your computer via the serial port is wireless to the antenna and receiver mounted outside on the Heatwatch 2 system. ...

Thanks for the info.  I was wrong on the number of years i looked it up he is in year 30 doing this on his own but neither of those mentioned are my embryologist he is alot closer to home. There is different opinions on everything as he does not recommend using cidrs and neither have few others...

Wish i would have known about the ear thing last week. Took pictures but didnt know to take an ear.  It was a doozy.

I am glad to hear others thoughts and opinions. We are only in our 3rd year of heavy E.T. work and we are going on the recommendations of our embryologist we are fortunate to have as he has been very helpful. We have been relying on his experience in getting advice since we are still getting our...

We breed the very next heat and that is what our embryologist told us.  We have stuck them every time on the next heat after embryo recovery which is about 5 days, hope this doesnt jinx the one that will cycle back this weekend.

They say to alternate so that the pest do not build up resistance to the wormer so you are supposed to use different families of wormers you can look it up on the labels of the wormers. The form really doesnt matter which one its just what you prefer, we try to inject it cause then we know its...

Seen them change a bunch and don't care to buy them with all the baby "fuzz" either or to sell them that young but hey its just me.

Stout and hairy s.o.b. thats for sure however the rear shot makes him look very unsound it looks like he toes out real bad on the front end and not real secure off the back left

Our semen tanks at home are covered under our farm insurance because for the value of all the semen and embryos on hand it is minimal expense per year to cover them incase of an accident.

Ours are around $40 to freeze but storage is free and ours will allow us to store other embryos in his tanks or we just store them in our own semen tanks.

A tip is to try and keep the oats and corn at approximately the same level it cost quite a bit more to do this in our area but we believe it is well worth it. Also in ours is soy hulls, cottonseed hulls, beet pulp, molasses, protein supplement, and a few other secret ingredients.  Thought it...

Ok understand about the socks I appreciate the info. I was picturing like an inch or so band of white.  The beef with socks is that we personally as an operation prefer no white except on face and the occasionaly little bit on the belly.  We are not in the business of sellin show steers and...

I am sure glad i saw this post. I had no clue he had white socks and will never use him for that fact.  This is just my opinion but it is a pretty unethical deal to paint over white socks on a bull just to sell semen you might as well dye a red one black to sell more semen on him to, this is...

He will moderate one that is for sure and another thing is make sure the cow or hiefer is stout enough hipped. He does make good females and like they said before he will throw white

Young bull that has definitely proven to do one thing and one thing for you....be inconsistent.  Small calves and big calves, smooth shouldered and rough shouldered, pretty good and pretty aweful, and these comments are from seeing flush mates.

Using him on simmy cows cause i had some left over and got some more for next to nothing and i am not really worried about having any problems and i like the look to the calves we have out of him already.

Using him on pretty much everything but focusing on goin back to him on the dream on's. Love black joker to death cause he makes awesome cows they keep easy and milk like a holstein. Flushing a "Perfection" x Dream On daughter to him and flushed a CCR Blackstar x  Dream On daughter to him last...
