    First Calf Shorthorn Heifer bull options

    Has anyone used Deception on numerous heifers with success? we used him one time on a mature cow and the calf was small, Shaped right, but the cow was a far cry from a first caller. And as JTM pointed out, by success i don't mean you had to pull it  (lol) JTM, glad i wasn't the only one with...

    First Defense

    We have always used the bolus with great success. I swear by the product, however, this year our vet talked us into trying one package of the paste, haven't used it yet but I figure the paste will be easier for my wife to give a calf if I'm not around rather than her trying to get a bolus down a...

    Disc Chisel Horsepower

    It depends on the spacing and size of shovel, we run an 11 shank with 4 inch twisted cupped shovels. It takes close to 20 horse per shank. Our 210 horse tractor (dualed, weighted, and front wheel assist) pulls it just fine. We run it 10 inches deep and 6 mile an hour. Speed is a big factor in...

    Calf won't suck

    Had a heifer calf born this morning around 4, had to pull it but the cow had been in labor for a while before that.

    Two Tone steer (updated pics)

    to be brutally honest he looks a little straight in his front 1/3 and a little broken in his top, BUT if you feed and maintain him right and with the right guy clipping him he could do a lot of good at more than a county fair if he moves well enough. good luck with him!
