I have a large cow with a tiny vertical crack at the very top of her front hoof. She has had it for a few week now and is limping except when feed is involved then she moves rather well with no limp. When she is standing, resting she holds it up some of the time. We had a vet come out for a...

We have a few calves we are selling. Coming to our house to pick them up this weekend. Do you wean yours first or do you just let them haul them off. They go through the stress of weaning here but it will be fence weaning which is not so bad but then on Sunday they will be loaded up and...

What is the best thing to feed a "1st calf heifer" that is looking skinny and needs some extra help. We are In southeast Tx. We give 14% cubes and 12% sweet feed and of course pasture. But I mean something that is going to boost and help her? Is cracked corn a good supplemental feed?? Would...

Just went out to check on cows and one of our cows, about 4 yrs old has blood coming out of both nostrils. Not gushing but trickling out like a nose bleed a human would get. Any ideas? She seems fine otherwise, good appetite. Colleen

If you have a 7 month old bull and you just turn it out into the pasture, will it mature and grow (to be used as a herd bull) or do you HAVE to feed it grain everyday? I know that if you supplement it daily it will be better but if not will the bull be stunted etc? Thanks!

We have a 3 yr. old heifer that we recently got. She was very thin. She has fattened up quite a bit but the other cows, even the calves, will not let her eat. Constantly hitting her away from hay, ranch cubes. She is small, never fights back. This is constant. When they walk past her they...
