Im going with coyote, happened before the sun came up so I know it wasn't a buzzard. Could of been a dog but there are not any within several miles of us. Ive lost them this year just about every way possible so coyote wouldnt surprise me...

looked for tracks but grounds so hard here couldnt find anything

def wasnt a buzzard, they would of still been roosting.

Anybody ever found a calf with its tongue bitten off? Had a heifer that calved early this morning probably just before daylight. When I found it heifer was standing over calf and it just looked like it had been stillborn, she had cleaned it off. But went to move it and noticed it had a bite...

all of mine have been about 10 days early or so from AI due date, had one that was 20 days early.

I dont trust it, I make sure I physically unplug mine if Im going to work on it. Mine will light you up, hitting it one time was enough for me!

per acre per year also

i just picked one up tonight for $8 an acre, but most of mine are 20-30. Also have a few I get to use for free just for providing upkeep for the property like others have said.

spot on for cow selection. My best milking cow has one of the lowest milk epds in the herd at +13, but she out milks all my cows in the 20's. Stays in great shape too. I dont put a whole lot of stock into epd's when selecting cows, look at a lot of other things before those.

Oh the bull will not be returning to my place. Too much to risk with the anaplas

came up with a solution that worked for both parties, thanks for everyone's opinions.

He was sold with fertility test and virgin bull statement both certified by my vet. No other guarantees written or implied.

haven't said outright, but I'm assuming they're trying to get a refund. Bulls 5 hours away from me

I sold a bull to a guy in mid April. Bull was 16 months old at the time and passed fertility test with flying colors. They bought him to turn out with 15 cows that did not calve until May&June. Guy called monday to tell me that all cows came back open after they palpated them. Kicker is that...

I bought a PTZ camera last year to watch the pasture we pull heifers into when we calve them out. It's hooked up to the tv in my bedroom, can scan the whole field and dont have to get out of bed at 2 in the morning just to discover nobody is doing anything. One of the best purchases I've made.
