    Question about heat detectors

    We've used both and I liked Kamars better. It did stick pretty good and the Estrotech stuck pretty well for us but like Dun and HomePlaceAngus said that when they go under brush they scratch it. We have a lot of low branched trees in the field so made it a little difficult. I have never used the...

    Cows fighting

    Just like anything else they have to work it out. It sounds like now that they have it out of their system. :) Hopefully things will remain peaceful for you. I'm like you when the cattle get to fighting, I'm afraid one is going to get hurt. Can't afford for that too happen especially that they...

    new calf

    I agree with a lot of people on here. Like Isomade said too that she is part longhorn. I have been around longhorns that were a friend of mine. Some look scary after calving. I used to tease him about them. I'm used to fat cattle lol. He would always have feed and supplements just to give them a...

    Very Nice Line Up!! I am actually looking at "maybe" using Hoover Dam. One of cows didn't take and if I can find sexed semen on him I'm going to go with him. So far striking out. Going to try and breed her again towards the end of November.

    Angus Bulls

    I completely understand! We went to a sale a couple of weeks ago looking to buy a cow that was already bred. I have to say that sale was a real disappointment! Out of about 50 lots there was bred heifer that we were going to bid on but decided not too. These were cattle for show. Needless to say...

    Well everyone is different. We have a few head so we do have the luxury of AI even though it can be a total pain when they don't take first time. It's a risk you take. When I look at bulls for AI I want something low to moderate birth weight. I will not use a bull that is usually 3.4 or higher...

    I just wanted to see what Angus bulls people like to use? We have used 50/50, Danny Boy, Pioneer, Final Product just to name a couple. We actually have one really good cow that we bought and she is carrying calf out of Point Taken (club calf). Can't wait for next spring to come around so we can...
