    We had hoped for two.

    Did u get a weight? Big calf. The empty tub looks perfect for the job. We used to use square bales when we had some.

    One or Two?

    Well yesterday I had to go pick up a pull type sprayer from other side of the province. Didn’t have time to deal with the calf. Showed some potential in the morning so I just left it and hoped it got hungry enough on its own to get some milk. Cow was being a little special the other day so we...

    One or Two?

    Well not real well but could be worse. He can get up but I can’t get him to suck from the cow or even a bottle for that matter so I’ve been tube feeding him. His front legs aren’t fully straightened so that’s hindering him a bit. Keeps stumbling around and ending up in weird places. Any...

    One or Two?

    The dam is commercial. She’s 3/4 angus and 1/4 gelbvieh. She’s a letter E so I think that 5 or 6.

    One or Two?

    Tried weighing the beast. I couldn’t get him totally off the ground with my sling but he is right around 130 lbs. Tube fed him and hopefully he gets up and going before too long.

    One or Two?

    And here it is. One whopper bull calf. Forgot to stick my arm to look for another but I’m quite sure there is room for only one of these. Biggest calf I’ve had for a long time. I’d like to see how much it weighs yet.

    Ya she’s not getting anywhere in close to an hour so I think we are gonna have to go ahead and pull it. If the calf is from Resource will be close to 2 weeks over due by now.

    A few replacement heifers

    Here’s a few pics of my replacement pen. I have my own heifers along with the group I am planning on selling as breds in fall. I really don’t know where prices are going to go in fall but I’m thinking I will need close to $3500 to feel like it was worth it. I bought most from a ranch that I...

    I got the bad bits out, hopefully.

    Ive heard tying a knot in a sweater sleeve works good. Last Tom cat we put a little green ring on didn’t end well for the cat. Accidentally slipped it over too far and pinched off his bathroom capabilities. Didn’t realize till later what we done. Felt terrible for that one. Miserable way to die.

    Bull shopping

    I’m like you I feel my brain hurting after looking through all the bulls, and numbers. I start with phenotype , feet, structure. Then what am I going to use him on? cows, heifers, for making replacements, making feeder cattle. Then I do quick scan of CE ( my opinion but this whole calving ease...
