    Lut or estrumate

    I always have thought Estrumate was better than Lut.  I am now trying Estroplan which is much cheaper any thoughts on it verses Estromate supposed to be the same?

    The Answer Bull

    Jim Horsley had the first calves last spring he leased him as a yearling. I leased him as a long yearling and have fall calves on the ground now, I had one at the North American on the side of a Senior Yearling Chi.  I sold most of the heifers he bred  and the reports have been excellent.  I ...

    What to flush to?

    I would suggest BR Midland, I have a dozen or so cows and they are the best.  Used him again last year and you can pick out the hiefer calves again against the Paydays( worry about maternal calving ease), Bismarks(need to calve a few). and Final Answer( need to calve a few).  The Midlands will...

    I have listed my phone # please call me if you have a genuine interest. She weighed 712 lbs on Jan. 1st. Here are the only other pictures I have, they are from this fall when she won her class both times we showed her.  Since I bought her as a baby on the cow we have found out the Chi Jr Nats...

    "Good" Angus Bulls

    I would not use Payday as he as a CED of 4, 7 is heifer acceptable and I had some monsters out of him this fall.  My alltime favorite is BR Midland easy calving, great mothers, and show appeal.

    Question on amount of sedative to give heifer

    We use thorazine and everyone gets a little before show time.  Calves that are real gentle get a 1/2 cc to Ext X Built Right gets 3/4 rectally.  When one has had a early heat from being on the road a cc.  Seriously a 80 lb kid and a 800 lb hiefer lets be safe.  We work with our calves alot and...

    What to flush our donor to?

    I am going to use sexed Fat Butt 5ml  semen on my baldy Chi hiefer. she is a Senior Yearling Hairy Bear with an AWESOME Answer hiefer calf.  They are going to be in Louisville, drop by our stalls and let my son hone his salesmanship skills selling egg packages.  Sexed semen is the key at our farm.

    Fat Supplement ???

    Corn oil from the grocery store has been used for years.  Start slow one oz morning and night up to a cup am and pm, watch for him getting loose.

    Multimin 90?

    I have been using it for a few years with my prebreeding shots and it is 1 cc per 200 lbs for cattle over 1 year, I think it is very useful.  Where it shines is in the commercial hiefers I breed for other people that haven't had the best minerial, better heats with it.

    Simmental sexed semen ?

    I am using sexed Grandmaster. Explorer, and Burning Up this year.  I used sexed Built Right last year and it is questionable quality.  I have been using sexed semen sucessfullly for awhile.

    2011 Ford F350

    I was a die hard Ford man, loved my 99.  The 6.0 was the start of their downfall and capped by the 10 that takes pulling the cab to do anything on the engine.  IMHO the price on the 11s is ridiculous, in my driveway is a new Dodge cab and chassis with an Eby bed.  The EGR delete makes the 6.0 a...
