I know that cows can abort calves when they are heavy bred if they eat Ponderosa pine needles. I have some heavy bred commercial cows that got out in the night and did a number on my tree farm. The trees are mostly blue scotch pines. Could they be at risk of aborting or are they safe?

I want some opinions on Club King, or any suggestions on another high % simmental bull that will work on straight angus commercial cows to make some females. I need better fleshing ability and more depth, and I can't spend more than $35 a straw.

I saw this on the history channel and thought it was interesting. I always thought that the cow's temperment influenced the calf's temperment, but according to this study done on silver foxes it has almost no affect even when you graft cubs or implant embroys in a donor fox, they always took on...

I need two bulls that will work on taller, femine angus cows. They have to throw black calves. Will be used as a terminal sires so pha and th are not a factor. The thicker the better, but I don't want to have to worry about them being able to walk. I could also use a lot more bone. Thanks for...

I was thinking about flushing to monopoly from a meyer-angus cow. Lots of cost their so I have to make sure everything pays off. I was actually thinking about keeping some of my best as bulls, but I don't have a clue what they would be worth. I would sell them somewhere between 12-18 months. I...

I want to change my username to reflect the whole ranch. Is there anyway to do this or do you have to make a different account

How should I clip one of my calves heads that was dehorned as a calf and has developed that V shaped head. His poll is really flat and wide and it's not the prettiest thing ever. I don't know what to do: I've seen people slick it off,  I've seen others leave some on the very tip of the poll, ...

Ok here's my problem. I live in a rural farm community and its almost time for the county fair. My dad is the voice of the market animal sale committee. We are overly ambitious and we volunteered ourselves (stupid or gullible) for the demolition of an old livestock barn at the fair grounds. We...

I was thinking what would happen if I got a contract with a dairy to use their Holstein cows to birth flushed embryos from a Simmental  cow that were sired by a clubby bull. Would their be any problems with the Holsteins birthing them or carrying them? I was just thinking that most dairy...

Does this stuff really work, because I like to keep my calves looking natural the less adhesive the better.

I was wondering what everyone feeds for roughage. I can't seem to keep my calf balanced; he always has the squirts. I know that his problem is directly related to his amount of roughage intake and not something else. So I wanted to ask if anybody knows how to get calves to eat more roughage...
