Might want to check Sire Buyer (or other sites like it) to see if any shows up. Don't know if they can be contacted to keep a look out for specific semen/embryos?

The only two Angus/Wagyu calves we have are built a LOT like the one in the pics. They are a good 3 months now. However, it sure seems like they eat as much, OR MORE, than the Angus calves same age. The calves can get into a "calf shed", and have access to hay anytime they want. The WagyuX...

Use either the loader with pallet forks spread distance apart to hook the edges of the tub, or put in the Mule, back up and drop in. Have extra one now (way less cows), drilled a couple ~1" holes in bottom of used tub and put salt lick blocks for cows in them. Edited to add: Also have used...

2-7/8" tubing. Yes, very stout. Can say they are bull proof, especially because they end up putting their foot into one of the "squares" before putting their head in/near the tub. Wasn't planned that way, just a bonus.

When I was looking for the TriShield paste last summer for September calving, couldn't fine it anywhere. I emailed the distributer for my area. She said it's been backordered, and not available most places, but they had just sent a new batch to Simplot (Western Stockmens) in Caldwell as just...

Still using these 10+ years later that husband made because of having to flip back over tubs, good to the last drop! Drag easily with ATV/UTV.

How old are they? I have two that are 3 months now, and bred two angus for next year. Want to see how the first two do before I jump in any deeper. Definitely different.

We tried it. Neighbor had some older Select Sires Wagyu Emori semen. I told him, "I" wouldn't AI them, he had to. Bred 2 heifers, got 2 "steers" in September. They are definitely "different". Have to say though, both calves were up on their feet FAST, and were determined to get to the teat...

Thank you.

How wide are each "curtain"? (Couldn't seem to find dimensions on website)
