Sorry to hear about the loss of your calf; it is always hard to loose a calf but more frustrating when it appeared to be alive during the delivery. The way to turn this bad thing into a good thing is to learn from it so it does not happen again. I don't know if you had the cow close enough to a...

We have a calf with it sired by Sunseeker and out of a Monsoon x Simm x Angus dam.

I'd just go one better than the shot of cysterelin and go the whole CIDER protocol.  It forces the hormones to do the right things at the right time; we have bred large groups of heifers and cows and gotten consistantly 80-90 percent conception with A.I,  synching with the standard CIDER...

Have heard that Solution does not have the bone and ruggedness; the answer is sposed to be Amazon...we will findi out; we used him this summer!

I am sick to death of hearing people say " I am pro life myself but I could never impose my beliefs on someone else".  Stand up and have a backbone.  Stand up and proudly say you are prolife and why.  We have a prolife governor in our sparsely populated state of South Dakota.  Four years ago...

My husband and I both think that there will be some very major dirt dug up before the election on Obama. He is too scarey. God Bless America!

My heart goes out to you. I went to work 8 years ago in a long-term care facility for just one reason and that was health insurance.  I found that there was another benefit and that was that I loved the people that I care for. Probably close to half of those in the facility are alzheimers...

We run 260 cows. They run pastures from May tll fall then they go out onto cornstalks until late January when they are getting close to calving. This is the ideal when there is not too much snow. We feed them from late Jan. until mid May when all danger of snow is past. Do not creep big-time...

I sent you a personal message! (thumbsup)

The first two photos are of a Who sired heifer out of a Heatseeker momma. The next two photos are of a Who sired heifer out of a commercial Simm x Angus cow.

We have wayyyy too much rain for right now but being from South Dakota we know very well that if you have too much rain at least you have grass and hay (if you can get it put up).  There are quite a few guys who have not gotten their corn in and now it is too late; they were going to put it into...

Thank you so much for sharing the pictures and the experiences with all of us; lots of breeders hide problems like this in the back 40 and never talk about them. What a wonderful opportunity to learn so much here from all! Thanks again!

Wanting to see a picture because I think we have a calf with this also; the crippled calf's momma  is a Monsoon and the calf is sired by Sunseeker. Would both the cow and bull carry this gene recessively?  The cow our crippled calf is out of is a beautiful cow going back to Siimm x Angus on the...

Could you post a picture of your calf?

I don't know anything about Remitall, but we are from South Dakota and do know a bit about Dieters. It seems  it is a business decision to sell out there; they did loose a bunch of money on a packing plant that they attempted to set up down in Neb.  Their idea was to have the whole cycle...the...

We are a foster home for the Department of Social Services  and take mostly all babies....we have 3 grown children and now are raising four adopted kids and presenstly have two foster kids in diapers!  I have had a bit of diaper experience! I have tried them all; you are right; don't bother...

We here in south central South Dakota have our wireless internet through our cell phone provider, Verizon. We too got very tired of our dial up access and what we really wanted to see over internet were all the auctions that are carried live by internet.  This wireless access is kinda expensive...

Anybody get the Wall Street Journal? It was in Friday's issue a huge story about horse racing... all of the entrants in this year's Kentucky Derby can trace their ancestory back to one horse, "Native Dancer". There were two or three entrants that were line-bred  Native Dancer and one flaw  that...

Showing my age again... remember when the filly Ruffian had a duel with a colt that I don't remember the name, but during that race, the filly broke her leg and was euthanized in that case also; it was a special broadcast and a special race just between a filly and a colt. Did not watch today...
