    Depth charge and Heifers?

    What is everyone's thought's on using it on heifers?  We used it last year, didn't have any trouble getting her bred with our show heifer.  But been hearing not to use it this year, it puts too much fat around tail heads, and does something to their teets.  Just asking, I don't want any...

    Grow and Shine?

    I called a well know vet in Ohio, he said also not to use on breed heifers.  I found out the hard way.  Got her off of it, when she came back into heat this weekend!

    Grow and Shine?

    Is Grow and Shine okay to use on pregnant heifers?  It says on the bottle not to give to pregnant women.  We have started her on this last week, we are rebreeding her tonight.  Can't find any info except on bottle.

    calve won't suck!

    Thanks, we've done it all hopefully he'll take off sucking.  His mother will probably be hamburger, don't put up with cows that won't let their babies suck!

    Calving Trouble

    We've lost 3calves out of 11 cows.  Had a nice 1-80 bull calve, his mother was a Hollywood (Heatwave) that won't let him suck.  We can't get him to take the bottle or suck into the bucket,  but he runs around.  What a year!!!  We are blaming alot of this on the drought in the hay and pastures...

    calve won't suck!

    This is the second calve this season that won't suck, his mother was a Hollywood heifer, she wouldn't leave him nurse. She hardly has any milk, cause she goes back to Heatwave. First and last on our farm. Can't get him to take the bottle, or suck our fingers with his head

    Breeding Heifers and Market Heifers?

    What is the difference?  How can you show in the breeds, then go into the next ring and show as a market heifer?  I thought a market heifer was thick, muscled,big boned, fit like a steer.etc.  I don't agree with this at all, Ohio has done this at it's shows this year.  People that I've talked to...
