We are looking into feeding the Purina Accuration range 33 during the winter to our cows. We live in northeastern ohio and had a terrible year for pasture and hay. We run about 50 head of broodcows. The cows that all weaned calves are a little rougher condition then wanted and we are looking to...

Im trying to find a good PB simmy bull that has readily available sexed heifer semen. I am going to breed it to my Angus cow and get a half blood papered simmy. But trying to find sexed heifer semen seems to be sort of tough for a good simmy bull. Anyone have any suggestions on a good bull? I...

i stopped and looked at the tractor. it was great. only one thing that concerned me other then having one remote when I wanted 2. but one serial number plate said 2140 and the other said 2640 on it. I didn't like that so I just walked away from it

So far it's looking like the cows that have got an egg have stuck. Only put a couple in as of right now. The cows I AI'd seem to be around 45-50% right now. I'm hoping that all the eggs stick!

Hey all. I am looking at buying a john deere 2140. Didn't know if yall had any experience with this tractor. It was an overseas model and I called my local deere dealer to make sure they can get parts easily and they said yes. it is 82 hp and seems to be nice. any info yall got would be great...

Ya they all came back in around the same time. But most were bred at the same time as well. I hope you have better luck then us

Oh I'm far beyond drove nuts over this. They are show cattle and not dumping cheap semen in them let alone falling behind on calving dates. I just can't wrap my head around it whats wrong. They get quality hay and free choice Rowe nutrition 8% mineral. Been a great system before. They will goto...

I was wondering if anyone else has been having problems getting their cows to stick AI this so far this year? I live in northeast ohio and I bred my first set 3 weeks ago and they all seem to be popping back in heat. I have been AI'ing for a few years now and usually stick about 75% put this is...

I am placing embryos. I just got into show cattle last fall. I raised commerical cattle now switching over to mostly all show and putting embryos in my commerical herd. I used to AI everything myself and got them done late last year. Last one just calved Saturday.

I am moving them up bc I have gotten into show cattle and want those jan and feb calves. Most of these cattle take first stick and I AI everything myself. Trying to set up and AI all the cows myself I didn't get them done until it was for March and April calves last year.

I know the standard time to place embryos is after 60 days but I have some cows that need to come back around to date to calve earlier in the year. Has anyone ever tried placing embryos 30 days post calving or earlier? How was the success and conception rate? I have some that calved last week in...

Thank you all for the advice. I will see how it does around here. Going to try and trade it in on something new

Hey all. I bought a massey 1150 last year and I'm thinkin about trading it in on something else or selling it to get something a little smaller. It's a great tractor but likes the fuel. Anyone know what their worth? I have only ever seen about 3 for sale and none of them were cheap but I don't...

I would like to welcome everyone to come and take a look at Esquire Cattle Co upcoming genetics sale on April 7th at Caldwell Willoughby! This sale will feature premier shorthorn genetics. There will be purebred shorthorn, shorthorn plus, and even a few club calf lots...something for everyone...

I do not. But that would explain the ridiculous prices Ive seen lately. Might be able to find some distributors that still have some

I would look at hot commodity. He is a great low bw bull and his calves seem to come easy. Also look at BISS Element. His semen isn't available on the open market yet but you can sometimes find it in sales they donate it too. His calves are just now coming on the ground but I love the looks of...

Thank you all for the responses. Looks like many good choices. I found a john deere to go look at this week and a couple new Hollands. Not many massey or Vermeer in my area that are nice. I wouldn't mind a claas either but they are pretty pricey. But seen one of them work...wow it was nice

I think flushing cows ivf is better because the drugs they use aren't as hard on the cows. I also like that you can bred them and flush them while they are bred up to 4 months I believe. If you are using high end semen then reverse sorting it in my mind is the best thing to do bc then u are...

To me I would breed her later that day. I try to follow the 12 hr rule. Breed 12 he's after they start standing. But just depends on what that 12 hr time is. I think u will be fine. Good luck!

I haven't seem much difference either. We are in Ohio and have miserable weather right now and no difference. I seem to see about an average of 7 days over expected due date on all my cows. Not sure why but that seems about the norm for us. Hope that everything goes well for ya! We got 5 due...
