    First Calf Heifer

    I guess Im sorry that I was asking so much, and giving so little info. My question is pretty simple though. Is udder growth normally a sign of pregnancy, or just normal maturation? And to answer a earlier question, Im guessing the heifer in question to be about 18-20 months old. I got her in...

    First Calf Heifer

    Hi all. I bought a few heifer calves last Nov. I still have three of them, and i'm wondering about one of them. She has been developing udders, like 3-4 inches worth, and the others only have the same little 1 inchers. She doesnt seem to be making milk but I'm not sure. She seems to be a...

    Grazing while on grain?

    Caustic, So I take it that I'm not going to feed enough grain to make a difference? The only reason I started with the grain in the first place is that last years finished product was too dry, will this make any difference? Todd
