    Thoughts on future breeding?

    Thanks for your input! I appreciate it. I was wondering about front end structure with some of these bulls but I think I-80 would be a solid choice. Thank you

    Thoughts on future breeding?

    Cow is a Jimmy the Greek x Ang/Meyer.  Thought about using Salty dog, WMW or Gunsmoke. Curious to see what others may think about different bulls or the ones I have listed. Also attached a picture of her as a calf.

    Sulfer Toxicity - MERGED TOPICS

    calves that are slow to nurse, greater than or equal to 4 hours, after birth should should be considered at risk for death, disease and impaired productivity (failure of passive transport; FPT).  Calves should consume 5-6% of their body weight in colostrum within the first 12 hours after birth...

    How quick can I AI after calving?

    After calving, cows go through a period termed Postpartum Anestrous Interval.  During this interval cows DO NOT have an estrus cycle and pregnancy is NOT possible.  Estrus will not resume until uterine invocation (repair) is completed by the cow (souly depends on how fast the animal will repair...

    Thoughts on steer

    Oklahomafarmboy-Right now I'm asking $2,500. I lowered the price some because I need to move him.   He was never fed the proper amounts of grain needed to boost him when he was younger.  I'm gonna get knocked for doing that but poor people have poor ways. My parents didn't have the time to give...

    Simmental advice

    My choices would have to be Top Gun or Upgrade. I have seen numerous calves out of these bulls that work very well on a cow like yours.  Upgrade X Starpower heifer sold at KSU bull sale this past year for $13,500.

    What do ya'll think of this exciting bull calf?

    here is my advice...if you are questioning to leave him a bull, then you need to cut him.  I don't want to come off mean here but I think the cattle industry has enough bulls that people thought would make it and didn't.  Yes he is good looking, but he isn't that stand out, eye catching bull. ...

    Dying hair

    What I usually do is mix enough die to be applied in 5 minutes.  How much Kleenex sheen really depends on the size of your bottle. Now that said, before u even think about dying your calf they need to be show ring clean, no dirt what so ever. Yes you should rub it in with gloves, let it sit for...

    Horse Slaughter facilities continued

      Does this not happen today?  Yes it does and what happens to those horses?  They end up becoming the wild horses that the BLM "takes care of."  This situation is always going to be there.  Everyone wants to hit it big and this is just the out come.  I think  you are a wrong on this one. ...

    My sons heifer

    She looks really good.  Love the soggyness when you look at her from the side.  If anything I would like to level her out in her hooks and pins, she appears to get to high in her pins. It would also help get her rear legs up under her more and get her squared up in the rump, right now she gets a...

    steer not gaining

    Mtnman the reason that worked is because the yeast that is used in yogurt is the exact same thing as the microbes in the rumen in cattle.  It is just a cheaper version of the probiotic paste.

    steer not gaining

    I think you may have a low protein feed.  I if your calf is weighing close to 1000 lbs should be on a finisher/grower ration.  this would make the protein around 13-14%.  I know this may not sound like a big percentage change but when you start to mess with nutritional requirements you are...

    Lookin for a BUTT

    In my experience with this situation they calf usually is never gets wider.  You could make him look wider with a really good clip job, but any judge can look past that.  It all depends on the animal on how he will put on the pounds and where.  He will either have a Kardashian butt or not. Most...
