    Will this bull make it as a Calf Club Bull ?

      I have always been interested in others point of views on the usa's cattle so this is interesting to me. How come they don't like the frame scores decreasing, and what do the calves typically finish at for weight? A typical moderate framed steer who is a choice plus usually finishes between...

    A new problem

    I would be asking for my money back. You should probably hold off on breeding her, but I would ask the vet. Contact whomever is in charge of the sale and be sure you tell them so it doesn't happen again (probably will but people will at least be aware of it)

    CIDR Question

    I'm feeling alot more confident. Thank you for all of your inputs.

    CIDR Question

    Both calved past 45 days ago. One has twins so we thought she would be harder to bring into heat. Both are pretty fleshy. Both calved un-assisted, no infections (dirty discharge)  when we bred both. The twin mother bulled the other cows all night (didn't let them bull her) and had some slime on...

    CIDR Question

    So we have quite a few of our cows express heat after pulling CIDR's, like they should have, but the two that I really wanted to stick didn't express heat. We bred one at 72 hours and gave her some GnRH, but her cervix didn't feel like she was in heat, has anyone else had that happen and the cow...

    My Turn

    Thank you for the response, I got him ordered yesterday and we are just going to try for the timed AI and see what happens. Either way it should be a pretty cool calf.

    My Turn

    She has thrown steers the last 4 years and the one heifer she did throw was out of this horrible simmental bull herd sire we used (we were desperate, one of our bulls got broken in a bull fight so we bought this guy as a last resort) and she pointed east and west when she stood............so she...

    He is cool!!! This is the cow I want a heifer out of. She is 13 (I want to replace her eventually). I think I am going to just take my chances with her and use regular semen.

    My Turn

    I went ahead and emailed a ranch that raised/sold quite a few my turns and the guys response was that they are all in the 80lbs-90 birthweight and he highly recommended using him. I have a couple of cows like that one that I would like to use him on so that makes me relieved to hear that. She...

    My Turn

    I am terrified of Hw. We used him a few years ago on a mature angus cow and she fell into a ditch and couldn't have the calf. It was a pretty large calf. We had to shoot the cow, she couldn't get back up. My husband said never again. So I was looking into something a little risky but not quite...

    Do you think that the cow photographed would work with him, based on the two photos?  She had calved a week prior in the second photo.

    When you put in his name into the "search" tab it comes up "error" so I am just going to ask........What have the Birthweights been like? If you know of any larger calves 100+lbs, what did the dam look like/was the breeding? We are interested in using him this year but would just like to be...

    Terminal Angus bull ?

    We used Raven on a simmental cow and the calf gained 5 lbs a day, he was a pretty neat steer. Should have finished around 1300, but the kids that purchased him were unsure of how to feed a steer.........long story short they were feeding him close to 50lbs corn a day, anything that can gain 5...
