Cows get Virashield 6 VL5 and the cows and calves will get Calvary 9 at 2 to 3 months of age

Yes, We have done it and it is expensive. They get you with the receipts. If you get 50 to 55% then I'd be happy. Also I never like a cow in ET to do more than 15 embryos, but IVF it' seems to be OK to get that many (60). These were Herefords that were old and proven good. They finally...

Can you tell us a little about your experience with draxxin? It seems like she did everything she could to save the calf expect some preventive medicine ...... First, NY like some have said its never what you want but it's part of ranching. Sorry you had to do it, but it sounds like it was...

Well said Northern. These are pictures and anyone thats been around cattle long enough knows that it is borderline at best if the animal is true to the picture. Especially structure. If you bought them right and they work for you, then great.

i remember how clumsy i was, my first time :cowboy: After you chased the cow across the pasture you were probably tired! Hereford.us -That's perfect!! Love it. For what it's worth :2cents: we have owned part of some high profile bulls that made us more than we ever payed for them. To us...

I would only do that, if she was a donor that had been flushed to much. If she is not a donor then is it really worth the chance. Why do you think she can't conceive? Has a Vet checked her? Good luck

ga.prime, :nod: How you get I'm close minded? I'm just a casual observer. You be whatever you want and I'll be whatever I want, how about it? :D My apologies ga.prime, I was not refering to you in that statement. I was just agreeing with your statement.

I know nothing about you. I'll be obnoxious, and you can be close minded. All comes out in the wash. ga.prime, :nod:

Knersie, again you know nothing about me and how well I do or how long I've been doing it. A simple I disagree instead of " while your bragging....... your losing customers". If thats what you think, fine. You are entitled. Luv, never mind. Bizin, You would be mistaken if you have seen me...

I luv, you need to re-read who started what! Knersie, your icon that you posted earlier is right on :bang: thats how I feel with you and luv. All I can say, :bs: Holsteins? Really? Hereford bull sales are at the highest ever and more and more commercial breeders are buying hereford bulls...

I'm so sorry! please forgive me. I did'nt realize that opinions were taboo and misunderstood to the legends. So please enlighten me on which bulls I am allowed to use on my "so called" herefords, that are born unassisted, have vigor, grow, milk, have good udders and are easy to sell. Please...

That might happen in your 3rd world country, but the cattleman I deal with realize it's how the are made not what they weigh when they are born. I'm not talking 100#, but I am saying the 50# minitures you want don't pencil out. EPD's are a tool, not the bible!

I've had 8 calves out of him, and really like them. Mine were born unassisted which is more important than BW to me. Plus mine were not that big and I live in a cold part of the country. Calves are not flashy but have volume and muscle. They are growing real well. I was told that 1 or 2...
