    Australians/New Zealanders

    One of my friends from the states visited New Zealand and came back with soremouth injection guns and vials that you must have in order to administer the vaccine. We can't get them in the united states. I'm wondering how hard they are for you guys to acquire and if there is a place that would...

    Long Range Wormer

    Has anyone tried this new product yet? What were your results? What age group of animals was it the most beneficial for you? We had a rep come to town and discuss it with us but I'd like to hear a little more about it before I spend $.01/lbs to worm an animal twice a year.

    Spooky Calf

    Good enough for the newspaper?

    So I have more mishaps then one tends to admit to. For some reason I felt it necessary to post them on facebook..........then I had two people ask me to write for newspapers and another to write a book, plus a bunch of others.

    Inducing labor................on a goat

    Has anyone ever had to induce labor on a goat or sheep? I have a boer who is one day overdue and we need to leave tomorrow. Does the lutalayse method work? Not many people on this side show goats, but almost everyone with cattle runs them together so maybe I'll get lucky asking here.....

    dirty harry

    Any idea what his seman is going for? I see it going for $20-50. I tried to contact a distributor and haven't heard back, I'm just wondering if the $20-30 pricings haven't been updated.

    So I bred a fullblood angus cow to a simmental bull. The cow went 13 days late and usually goes within two days of her due date. I bred another PB angus cow to another simmental bull and she is also late, by 3 days. So my question is this; is their due date based upon the 283 day period that is...
