Would the Heifer Plus work with amps? Because of the increased volume of the ampules; the amount of the Heifer Plus is made for the volume of semen in a straw.

I will have you know, Cowboy, that I am just BARELY over 50! I have been heat detecting cows since I was 12 and A.I.ing since I was 18. How the time flies.... :o

Wow, do I hate answering this question cause it shows my age, but here goes.......... the old amp contained several cc's of semen so that is way, way more than a straw.  We used a "pipette" and a syringe with a rubber connector that would draw the semen up out of the amp into this pipette which...

What is this business with dandelions in bloom and grass actually growing???? We are in South Dakota and in the western part of the state, roads are closed because of a blizzard! We just have rain and supposed have an inch of snow tonight. Nice calf!

We all have things happen when we raise livestock that haunt us afterwards.  I have learned through the years to remember:   1. Don't let it have happened in vain....learn from it, make changes because of it to better care for those that come after. 2.Thank God that it was only an...

Is Amazon freezing yet? If not, how close is he to freezing? Thanks.

We have had  this a couple of times in many years of calving and over thousands of births.  Simply, there is just a bit of the navel opening that did not seal off like it normailly does; the intestine just needs to be put back up inside the calf's abdomen and the hole sewn shut and all will be...

We did buy a bull in one of the sales at Denver; we were on the phone with a field rep and we also were on the internet.  The internet is a great tool but we would never trust it to actually bid over it; there are too many variables....there maybe a delay in the sound and/or picture; the...

diptheria? if it is this, will see lesions under her tongue and on the sides of her mouth. her breath will smell awful, breathing will be hard and noisy. need to see a vet but from what I remember, we cured it with large doses of oxytet and it seems like something else. Best of luck.

Actually, he is not even born yet'; due in a few weeks. Can't wait! Thanks for the replies.

We are hoping to raise a breeding bull that will be competitve in Denver next Jan. or at least look good! The bulls we saw there this year (Limousin) were weighing 1400 lbs. at 11 monthes of age, had huge scrotal circumferences for that age ((upper 30's, even 40) and had wonderful long hair...
