I had one like that last year.  Did Oxytetracycline for the prescribed days and BO-SE injections.  Massage and manipulation.  She did well, ate, played but would be worse at the end of the day.  When she got older I gave her a full dose of MSM orally.  She had a few bad days but I thought she...

For heifers I'd use Jesse James.  Ain't no better.  For each one out of a first calf heifer I sold, I sold for more than her mother cost me.  Consistently easy calving, easy doing, great disposition, great hair, good moving, good all-around calves. Smokin' Bob?  I've got nothing against him. ...

My two cows were totally different, other than structure/profile.  Good head and neck, sloping shoulder, longer spined, straighter hocked but still free moving. Cow one was a Heat Wave x Meyer x Angus cow that was shown up until 1 1/2 before calving.  She was fat & huge.  She is huge and stands...

With such varied results, I would like to know more about the cows, management style, etc. in the various cases.  But mostly about the cows: bloodlines (if known), size, type and any other information.  There's got to be a reason for such varied results.

Yes, Jesse James.  Can't say enough good about him.  Used him on a winning Heat Wave x Meyer show heifer.  Used him on a PB Angus Heifer.  Both gave me 72-75 lb. calves that were hardy and good doing.  Both became winning show heifers.  Both were thick, correct, smooth shouldered and clean...

I think I understand what you're planning on.  Like a lot of barns down in this part of the country, they're not enclosed.  Don't have doors.  Just a gat across where a door would normally be.  Every one I've see has been done by local builders as weld up steel.  Including the one I'm leasing. ...

Ice Pick is the sire of Irish Whiskey.  I do not know the type of cow he's out of.  But my Dad always said why use a bull or a son of of bull when you might be able to recreate that.  I'd do some research into Irish Whiskey and try that Ice Pick Semen...

Sizzler14, What makes you think Clean Machine is going to Work?  Honestly.  Have you seen him.  What's your opinion?  I like what I know and would like to use him.  But I've only see a few pictures from Denver or the Photoshopped pic online.  He's got a pedigree.  Not Just a son of a son of a...

If you can find him.  Semen is not easy to get.  And I'm not sure about his clone.  With Jesse James you get Total Solution along with 2 shots of Whiplash (thus 2 shots of Meyer) from his maternal side.

Funny.  I have had two Jesse James calves over the past two years out of first calf heifers.  One out of a big Heat Wave show heifer First pic) and the other out of a PB Angus (second).  They both came out perfectly (72 lb. and 75 lb.).  Vigorous.  Quick to eat, easy doing, hair, gentle with...

And a couple more of my Jesse James heifers.

Jim Williams is one of the best judges with our youth in the country.  You might not agree with how he sorts them, he usually does a really good job, but he talks every calf in the class.  He's honest and fair.  May even "teach".  There's a reason he was voted "Best of the Barns" judge of the...

My gosh people.  Everyone keeps skirting around him.  Jesse James.  Jesse James.  Jesse James.  From Texas to WI, not only do they have great dispositions, they have personalities.  Wake up!  Calving ease, easing doing, hair, works on all types of cows, and some of the best calves I've ever...

There are quite a few nice brands out there.  Honestly it's going to come to to two things.  1. $$$$$$ and 2. The features you want. <cowboy>

I've pulled many brands.  Mine and those I borrowed.  My favorite by far was 4-Star trailers out of OKC: http://www.4startrailers.com.  Order it just like you want it.  Ramp on the side.  Ramp on the rear.  Remove saddle rack to stack buckets, forks, etc in the rear.  Put your tack room door on...

Anyone have any experience with the bull CCR Cowboy Cut 5048Z?  Seams to cross well with clubbies from what I have seen.  Anyone use him on any heifers?

Jesse James give her problems calving? Ha!.  It's not always just weight but shape. If you have a nice fronted bull with good shoulders, it's not a problem.  Even with bigger calves.  But I'll repeat, I had two that were 72 and 75 lb. born unassisted out of first calf heifers.  One out of an...
