    Determining ET calving date

    I have a Meyer 734 ET calf I think a week overdue.  We implanted the embryos on June 28th so what date would I consider the breed date to determine calving due date.  I came up with March 29th, I guess I'm just nervous because this is my first ET calf.

    Breeding a dakota gold 2nd calver

    What are people breeding to their dakota gold cows mine just had a nice I-80 heifer this will be for her 2nd calf.  My goal is for a good show steer.  I was thinking I-67, bearcat, I-Believe, and 2nd to none.  I'm a little concerned about BW on those last 2 but what does everyone think.

    sexed semen

    What is the difference between a 3 ml and a 5 ml straw of sexed semen.  I just know that I have seen different sizes, does one have a special purpose or are you supposed to maybe get better conception rates with a larger straw.

    breeding questions

    I'm new to breeding and showing I have a grizzly cow that is great fronted and more feminine.  Her first calf out of i80 was a decent calf but he could have used more bone, girth, and he broke down behind his front shoulder.  I want to breed her for a show steer, something that will add bone...

    man among boys

    Maybe I missed something but it seems like his semen is no longer available sek cattlevisions he's either not listed or the price is zero indicating he's not available.  His clones are available but I would rather use the original.

    dna testing

    Is there a way to DNA test to determine the sire of a heifer.  I'm buying a monopoly heifer and not to be a pessimist but how do I know if she is actually sired by monopoly.  She's a very nice heifer I'm going to be happy with her regardless of her sire I'm just curious.  I'm sure I'm not the...

    who is the best red angus bull

    Im not familiar with the red angus breed as a whole.  I have a red limi cow who I want to cross on a red angus so I can show the offspring in limi class at my county fair.  Both of the calves she has had were too tall and lacked width.  Her calves profile well and have enough bone.  I would...
