    Not the way you want to find a calf

    He is a chunk.  He had to be playing and jump through the tree, he was high center both his front and back feet were off the ground.  He kicked me twice when I was getting him out and my daughter thought it was the funniest thing.  I think he is going to be fine.  He acted really sore this...

    What is the highest percentage of one sex of calves out of a herd bull?

    We have finished our spring calving 31 cows with 24 bull calves and 7 heifers.  The one thing I will say is I am very excited about 3 or 4 of the heifers.

    Costs of certain vet charges???

    Here we use one vet clinic to do our herd health program.  We use them for everything and follow their protocol, and they do not charge us for health papers.  A trich test is $90.  At the sale barns in this area all bulls are sold as killer bulls and if you buy one as a herd bull the buyer has...

    New Herd Sire "Diezel"

    I like him a lot.  Will you show him this summer and fall?  He would have been very competitive at Denver.

    What is the highest percentage of one sex of calves out of a herd bull?

    I have have a bull who out of 45 calves he has just had 4 heifer calves and for a guy who sells heifers to pay the bills it really stinks.  Has any one else had an experience like this with a bull?

    Which Blower is best?

    I will also say there will be some differances within the same brand.  Last year we bought two double set ups from sullivans.  One blue set and one black set and the blue set blows harder.  Not sure why but it blows harder.

    Spring born calves

    When we got home the calf was running a temp so we gave her some draxxin and we wormed the cow and kicked them out into a 4 acre trap that had lots of grass.  Ryan has been feeding the cow and I bet she has gained 200 pounds.  The calf does not look like the same calf.  Had a guy through last...

    Spring born calves

    Doc do you recognize the last heifer?  I had a chance to buy a bunch of hazel leap semen and did not do it.  That was a mistake.

    Spring born calves

    Here is a picture from last year of the top heifers mother.  She is an impact shaker out of a Hazel leap daughter. I really like her udder and the way she raises a calf.  I do not know if we will show this years calf but I do plan on keeping her for a replacement.

    Generac GP7500E Generator

    It is not the watts that end up causing the issues.  We have a 7500 watt craftsman that we bought during a power outage and it will just run one blower.  It only has one 20 amp breaker so two blowers will blow the breaker.  In contrast I also have an old no name generator that was given to me...

    My son's newest show calf

    Mark I have not seen it but have heard from a couple differant people that there is a Throwback heifer calf in western Oklahoma out of a Solution Daughter that might put him on the map.  The plus is she was out of a show heifer and weighed 82 pounds and was born unnassisted.

    My son's newest show calf

    Getting close to being done until the Jr Nationals.  We probably should not taken him as he has only been weaned 3 weeks.  But we wanted to get him out a couple times before we take him to the Junior Nationals.  The Judge ended up and used him as supreme bull.  Made me look bad because I thought...

    My son's newest show calf

    He is an Elbee Throwback out of Kolt Foxxy (final solution out of a Vortec x Elbee Bessie).  He weighed 63 pounds at birth.  My son haltered him by himself and has really taken responsibilty of showing him.  Let me know what you think?
