    Sons Heifer

    Yes I would agree her biggest fault is her front end.  She should grow into it with time and a neck sweat.  I will try and get a good rear view picture

    Stalls

    We use 10-12 inches of ag lime. Put it in, level it out, soak it with water, and the run a compactor over it. Makes a good base and gets as hard as concrete. Then top with wood chips

    Can you wash your calves in the cold

    We used to wash in the cold as long as the hose wasnt frozen no matter how cold it was. Seemed to bother us more than the calves. Since those days we have built a wash room and insulated it and put a small heater in there. We can now wash or rinse no matter how cold it is .

    Sullivan vs. Weaver fitting products

    We switched to Weavers and love it. Their adhesives are great they have plenty of hold yet are still easy to comb even hours later. The red touch up paint is the best we have found for herefords. Everything we use is now weavers down to the shampoo and conditioners. Their adhesive remover is...
