    hairy heel warts

    The best thing for hairy heel warts is any of the tetracyclines applied right to the heel.  You can put tetracycline powder or LA 200 on gauze and wrap the foot with vet wrap or you can buy water solubel tetracycline and spray it on (daily for several days). I can't imagine how you would cut...

    help needed bad...

    When I was working on my doctorate, I had 8 ruminally canulated steers that I used for my research.  When we weren't using them, they were kept in a pasture along the highway.  You wouldn't beleive some of the things we would find in those steers.  Walmart sacks were pretty common.  Even pulled...

    Cameras for cattle

    My wife just purchased the Canon Rebel T1i and she absolutely loves it.  She takes all of our cattle pictures and I think it does an excellent job.

    Mark, You obviously don't listen to the Rush Limbaugh show, because that is not at all what he said.  Just as Rush predicted he tweaked the liberal media just right and they twisted his words, and got all of their liberal followers all worked up. Did anybody listen to the show yesterday and...

    Gigilo Joe is $130 for the 2 million and Dr. Who is $350 for the 5 million. (Both prices are as of last spring) Dr. Who's would not be registerable Maine out of your cow.  Gigilo Joe would register 1/2 Maine.

    Stainless Steel Daughters

    We've had 7 Stainless Steel calves over the last few years and I would say they are far above average on temperment.  We never had a problem with any of ours. We have 2 daughters.  They both had Northern Improvement calves last year for their first calf and they were good.  This year the black...

    sexed semen in the dairy barns

    With the dairies that I deal with in the upper midwest, I would say that about 30% of them are using it on their heifers for 1st and 2nd services.  Conception rates on lactating cows are generally so low that very few people are using it on them.  As far as bull calves, a $50 bill will buy all...

    Meyers Climax

    I saw this bull at Nycols a few weeks ago and he is very impressive.  Deep, thick and big boned.  Very moderate for a simmental.  He looked better in person than he does in his picture.  I think he could make some very good F1 females.

    Corn Gluten

    I use 24% CP on a DM basis in my ration balancer for corn gluten feed.  The majority of dry CGF comes pelleted (average pellet quality; plenty of fines).  The benefits are that it is an economical protein source that is low in starch and high in fiber (less bloat, founder), and is high in...
