    BSE & Trich

    I would have the person I loaned the bull to pay the expenses, before he returns him. That is a crazy amount. We pay a $50 trip fee, $45/bull for semen BSE, and $20 for TRIC plus $25 lab fee to state.

    Big foot and a dead calf

    Does her hoof have a sand crack? Once it made it up to the coronet band, it caused irritation and it infected. Soaking it in epsom salt will draw the infection out. Antibiotics recommended.

    County extension

    We had one in our county when I was growing up. His name was Joe Legg. He would go on crop walks, be in the office to examine plants brought in, lead county meetings on ag related information, help at county fair, ect. He went to other countries to tour their crops and animals and was a...

    Angus heifers

    Are you talking about Bill Conley (BC Angus) from Clarksdale, MO? His son Kyle raises Angus in Oklahoma..Conley Cattle Company. He has been running the Angus Shows with bulls and now his son is showing in Junior Show. He does do a handful of Sim-Angus, I think to get some extra buyers.

    What happened to Connealy Clarity?

    That is EXACTLY why Brian McCulloh wanted ORIgen to explain WHY Woodhill Relevance died. The bull died less than a couple of years after he sold to ABS. Brian didn't want anyone to think that there was something funny going on, so it was stated that he died from an infection. I remember the...

    1ton vs 3/4ton truck shopping

    I have had that same thing happen to me twice now. Drove over a bridge while on a 2 lane highway and all at once it went crazy. I started to pull over and slow up, and it quit. My Ford F350 is only a 2017 with 21,000 miles on it. Is that a warranty thing? I purchased the extended warranty.

    Moved and have tentatively opted to change my whole life..

    The kitchen photo shows a stove top with a glass top. I believe you have an electric stove top...no gas there. Enjoy slowing down.

    TransOva or conventional flush?

    They are all about the same actually. My first flush with Bovetiq gave me 100% transfer success. The next yielded 50%. The cow and bull used makes a lot of difference. I now go where it is most economical.

    Dex/Lute Question

    Inducing a cow a week before their due date is DIFFERENT than trying to abort a short term bred animal. Inducing labor is used when you are worried that the calf will be large, either due to genetics or a lot of time due to using IVF embryo work. When inducing, you use Dexamethazone to help...
