    RUN DOWN COW

    Cottonseed will be fine. The other cows eat it fine with no problems. Jst one of those things I guess, I'll watch and see what happens. She is starting to gain slowly.

    First Calf - Thoughts?

    Very good form for a 5 month old. I have one the same age that looks about 75 lbs lighter than yours.

    RUN DOWN COW

    Thanks for the input. I had treated her twice with Safe-Guard worm pellets. Had the vet come out last week and gave her a shot. Not sure what it was, but I know it cost me $125 :shock: He said to take the calf off of her early and to keep her on the cotton seed and corn for another two...

    RUN DOWN COW

    I have a Brangus cow that had her first calf about 3 months ago. She started looking shabby a few weeks ago. She has lost a lot of weight and has long hair still, which makes me think it is worms. I seperated her and gave her antibiotics and worm medicine. Put her on feed also. No luck so...

    Hereford Hoof Problem

    Thanks everyone. The terrain is very good here. Great pasture on a ridge. I'm in Louisiana so, sure, it does get wet for a day or two after a rain, but we're in a DROUGHT, so there goes that theory. The hooves are actually beginning to improve. The "long" side dropped off in the rear. They...

    Hereford Hoof Problem

    Ok - I have heard the many problems with Herefords regarding eyes, cancer, etc. I am a glutton for punishment so I finally bought one. I have a Hereford heifer (now bred by the way) that has recently begun 'growing' her hooves; they began extending past normal length of cattle hooves. This is...

    Look What I caught

    I'm jealous. I'm going to Colorado next spring and I would love nothing more than to catch a few brown trout. Is it impossible for an 'out of towner' to get in on the action?

    bored with the same old recipes-

    I'm a seafood buff. 2 quick meals are: 1) fried calamari with 'Cajun Power' garlic sauce (I can send you a bottle if you like) and 2) Baked sea scallops wrapped in bacon seasoned with lemon juice, worshitsher :( sauce, and lemon pepper.

    Additional deer / turkey hunting lease

    Sounds like a dream come true. You could probably scout for 2 months and never see the whole property!
