[QUOTE="WalnutCrest, post: 1485310, member: 21715"] When we bought Violet, she was to be the focus of our ET program. She died of natural causes before we could flush her even once ... so, we've used a daughter, a half sister and a half brother quite a bit instead. Another daughter of hers may be queued up to use the next time we're flushing. Two basic types of DM ... missence (i.e., it doesn't express in utero) types (there are at least three of these, including one known as F94L) and disruptive (i.e., it [u]does[/u] express in utero). We do not want anything to do with any sort of disruptive variant. The F94L variant common in Aubrac is also very common in Limousin cattle and it doesn't begin expressing itself until about 3-4 weeks. She was hugely tremendously awesome. And sweet natured, too. I don't want any Autistic cattle. ;) Vaccines are ok. We've never had a need to give them. We will treat when sick...it just doesn't happen very often with our Aubracs. Over the last five years, we've spent less than 15% of what we've spent on a per head per year basis on treating our Aubracs and Mashona cattle than we have on the commercial blacks and BWF cows we've had.
