    Neck Sweats

    They do work and we also use the sweat stuff that sullivans sells.  Smells like bengay and you rub that on the area the sweat collar is going.  Need to make sure you get it rinsed out good.

    What kind of cows are your calves out of.  I just bred a sunseeker/strictly business heifer that is an absolute tank to him.  Hopefully it is my first calf that I AI'd myself so I hope I am not in for a mess.

    King Meyer!

    What kind of cows are you using him on.  I have one straw of sexed semen left on him and just want to know what he is working on.  I really like the looks of him and his blood lines say it all.

    The simplest things...............

    I agree!  I enjoy just standing at my back door and seeing all the cattle grazing and the calves running around a playing.  Nothing more relaxing.

    cow vs. heifer a.i

    Just gpt done going through my A.I training class and that was a big topic we discussed.  We all concluded that as long as your cattle are in good condition it really should be about the same.  Yes a heifers cervix is going to be smaller and easier to reach and a cow should have a larger cervix...

    Hired man ~~~~~~ Monopoly

    The monopolys that I have seen they have a lot of body to them but not much else.  They look like they would feed out well but not in a real showy package.

    calf keeps falling down

    I believe there was a post on here a year or more ago because we were going thru the same thing.  I believe it suggested to walk in circle with her in a small pen.  It said to just give a few tugs at a time and don't keep constant pressure on it.  We did this a few times and she stopped flopping...

    Questions about callf cooler

The weekends I feed a little later you just want to make sure the coolroom is cooled down before you put the calves in. The kids and wife would go out about 6:30 or 7 depending...

    Ground hogs

    You can get the golden malrin at tractor supplies and most other feed stores.  It comes in a can and is a blue granule.  I haven't had much luck with it getting rid of flies but it works wonders on ground hogs, possums, and racoons.  I hear that if a dog or cat eats it the will throw it back...

    Ground hogs

    I had problems with them in my barn last year and I mixed some golden malrin in some feed and left it out for a few nights and it took care of them pretty quick.  I also had a buddy with a problem with racoons and he mixed the golden malrin with coke and they only made it feet from where he...

    Mossimo

    I have a buddy that had a maximus heifer out of an angus cow that has cow stamped all over.  I wish I had a whole field full of cows like her.  He is also really big on the Macho bloodlines for his club calf mamas.
