Just wondering what maine bulls people like for making heifers that milk well and are still phenotypically appealing (stout,hairy,good structure etc.). Our I-80s look great but does anyone know how they milk? Thanks.
Is what you are talking about on the pump itself or back at the rear axles? The other hydrolics work fine. I can lift our disc mower arm up fine with no problems, its just that the arms on the hitch take about 1-2 minutes to fully raise up, doesnt matter if I increase the rpms or not. Thanks so...
I have a JD 4240 that takes forever for the three point hitch to raise, at least a lot longer than it should. Hydrolics fluid is ok and im pretty sure the pump is ok, any othee suggestions on what it could be? Thanks.
I have a calf that im not sure whether he is double muscled or not. Is this something that can be tested with a hair sample or blood sample, and if so where could i have it tested at. What problems would i run into if i used him to breed some angus cows next year. I hate to throw him away cause...
Here is a mid February out of him. Weighed 85 to 90lbs i would say. Out of a 3/8 Habanero cow. He is probably the stoutest calf she has had and she is 11 years old. She has had some calves do well. kinda excited about this guy. I have seen some really good I-80's too so i dont know what to do...
I dont know what the deal is i dont know whether its coincidence or what but here is a little background. We have about ten calves or so on the ground and they are all fine except our ET calves. 3 of our 4 embryo calves have been fine one day and dead the next. Granted they have been HUGE calves...
Agreed, i think most of them will be around that 80 to 90lbs range. You will here of some huge one here and there, but thats with any bull. I have had 110lb calves out of proven calving ease angus bulls.
Does any one know anything about the bull Lard Ass? I think he was owned by Bill Cody Show cattle but not sure. What he is? What they are like? Is he registered anything? Thanks in advance.
Seen someone mention the bull Hardings Capital Gains earlier in the post. Is he hard to get semen on and anyone have any info on him? We had bought a cow a LONG time ago out of him and we sold two really nice calves off her then sold her, but man i would love to have her back. Just didnt know...
Well, I had my first Simple Math calf this morning. He was about a 90lb solid black bull calf out of a 3/8 Habanero daughter. I am pretty impressed so far for a day old calf. He is very stout, big boned, and very hairy.
So not to change it up too much but since we have got some good answers, what do you think is the best way to feed one and on what for optimal meat goodness, yum. lol
@flacowman, Im not going to run a guy down on a public forum, but just be thankful you havent had to deal with him that much. I am to the point i will breed to another bull and come in second than breed to a lautner bull and win. JMO,
