I agree with jtm some good hay in the pan will be best bet to get his interest. A small salt lick or other familiar items could help aswell

(clapping) excellent idea. We have decided to test all our herd Bulls this year and are replacement females astarting this fall. We seen are first dirty calves this spring and won't stand for it again.

Bump

Thanks Mark she has adequate rib shape in my opinion but I'm hoping to see touch more muscling as she develops. She gets a little flat in rear end. Just trying to decide between her and another that's a little more powerful but not as soft made.

This heifer is out of a cow we bought last fall. We are very pleased with the Anchor C cows we got. This is one of two good heifers they gave us. Any thoughts on her would be appreciated . Would she make a breeding heifer for fall shows?

We like a 1/4 to 1/8 angus in our momma cows give them the angus maternal without losing the exotic jam for performance.

Use 5 strand Barb wire at 50" at the top and 12" on the bottom. Feed pens are mostly 2x6 with wind board gradually changing out to pipe for less maintenance but it is more costly. Use the h.d. Pipe panels to build catch corrals in fall. Working pens are pipe 72" as we see all types of cattle...

Depending on your area you could try to hire a couple of day work Cowboys and have them roped and skidded into a trailer. It's western but with experienced hands makes shirt work of them hard to handle cows. We've worked a number of cattle this way as we worked the char influence out of our herd.

When the la 200 products aren't working we have had succes with either long acting penicillin or the a mastitis product by the name of special formula. Using a sulphur block or garlic mineral can also aid in prevention although the sulphur product is not the best for gut health. Good luck

Knabe I don't know if you can find it but Daines Copenhagen could sure add some milk

I would agree with Mark. As well Ceasar is an older bull that can add some grow and keep the look on the calves. I'm expecting Jose and Daddy's Money will both make there mark on the maintainer world too in the near future

As a guilty pleasure of mine it's nice to see some beltie out there. I sold off my old beltie cows when refocusing our program but retained a beltie maintainer heifer to try getting a purebred belted Maine.

Nice looking bull. Appears to have some power should make some good ones.

Heifer bull AMA Alvin 11A Sr. Sire AMA 17X Both home raised

Getting ready to put semen tank away and turn out the clean up boys. Took some cell pics today. Any thoughts? AMA 9B full blood yearling Black grandson of Special Edition yearling new purchase

From a commercial perspective retaining own replacements rather than buying in has really increased uniformity and predictability. From a seed stock perspective using mor AI and higher dollar clean up bulls rather than just a bull. Best decision away from genetics is checking my ego at the door...

As usual out daughters have been out helping us with the cows. They are 7 3 & 1. The middle daughter now follows my wife around when we are breeding hfrs with a sheath shoved in the front of her jacket just "Like mommy" chantimg I help too

If search dairy cattle bcs in the images. There's a number of easy to understand pictures showing the difference in body condition.

Congrats. He's looking good.

Had a mainexredangus cow that would cycle quick and catch each year if we didn't watch her closely. The last year we had her she actually calved twice in the same calendar year.
