I have a Miniature hereford/angus cross heifer that I am trying to figure out how to breed. She is smaller framed but she isn't miniature. I am thinking about AI breeding her to a calving ease clubby bull, but I am not very familiar with club calf breeding, and I am open to breeding her to a...

I know how that is, I get ringworm on my show animals every winter. Anti-fungal/jock itch spray or cream from a drug store. Both work, the spray is easier to put on. I use this once a day until I see hair growth. Also if you can get 7% iodine from your vet that works awsome. I normally only put...

I run 16 head and I have never had hoof problems on my cows until last year I noticed one of my cows hooves are starting to get too long. They aren't curling up or anything yet but I am worried she is going to go lame. I was able to get her hooves trimmed last June and I thought that would do it...

Miniature Herefords are registered with the American Hereford Association, so if you were to look at a pedigree of a regular size Hereford and one of a miniature Hereford you wouldn't be able to tell which is miniature unless you saw them in person. So yes, you could breed a mini bull to full...

I will just tell you prefixes.....he has some KAP, POE, TC, MF, J-W, KMCC, 05, and Diamond R. The only name I am familiar with as a well known bull is his sire; PJR Mr. Mischief. And maybe his grandsire; KAP Handsome Gregory.

I agree, the white one.

I ended up getting some Precon and fed it straight for the first 3 days, now I'm mixing it with sweet feed. They really love it! It is also cheaper than I thought it would be, only like $14 a bag. Which is great because I'm in CA and feed prices are through the roof here, hay is up to 16-25...

Can you mail the blades in also?  If so how do you go about doing that? I have searched the Sullivan's website trying to find info about it but I didn't find any forms or anything to fill out and mail in with the blades.

100 years ago, "miniature" cattle were the norm. Basically Miniature Herefords are just a rare pocket of cattle that didn't go through the "grow them as big as possible" phase of the cattle industry over the past 50 years or so. Really, miniature cattle are true to the breed while "standard"...

I really like the Shorthorn! I used to show shorthorn steers so I am partial to the breed. He is a REALLY awsome steer! You were lucky to produce such a nice one! Nice PB Shorthorn steers are hard to come by at least in my area, even from experienced Shorthorn breeders! He is long bodied and...

I am going to be weaning my calves (both heifers and bulls) this weekend and I am trying to figure out the best feed (grain) for them during the weaning process. They are Miniature Herefords, and are between 6-8 months old. In the past I have gone with a sweet feed mix, but it can get expensive...

I have an Andis AGC2 Super 2 Speed Clipper, and it has suddenly stopped working. If I push the plug into the outlet while I turn it on, it works.......must be electrical? Does anyone know if Sullivan Supply does clipper repairs? Also do they do blade sharpening? If not does anyone have a place I...

He is a 5 1/2 year old registered Miniature Hereford bull. I am trying to sell him and I can't decide on a price. I want to be reasonable but still make money. Also, just in general, what is the rule of thumb when selling older animals, cows and bulls? Does their value dramatically decrease? I...

ok i know its been a long time since I posted this orginally but some of you wanted me to tell how he turned out. my fair was back at the end of july. He got SUPERRRRRRR picky about eating towards the end, May-July he barely ate anything. I tried soooo many different tricks i cant even count...

Looks like a powerful little guy! what are your plans for him?

yes injection sight lumps are pretty common. never heard of using a rolling pin but that sure sounds like it would work!

We never feed grower at all, only finisher, my 4-H leader says that there isnt much difference, and weve had many many champion steers in my group that ate finisher all their life. I'd say its fine to switch the other steer to finisher

Big Valley Cattle Co. or Big Valley Farm

she looks like shes long bodied, and that she could get pretty deep. also real femine

Ive been trying to push him to eat more, but hes really picky and wont always finish his grain. I think he is starting to get a better appetite as hes getting bigger, so Im gona try to get him up to at least 15-18 lbs a day. He only gets about 1 flake of hay a day, which helps with his appetite...
