    Buying a Bull

    I am planning on going to look at a bull that I am interested in buying this week. The bull is registered and I am paying what I consider a premium price. This is my first experience buying a registered bull and I was wondering if there is anything in particular I should look for on the...

    Weight Loss in 4 yr old Cow

    I've got a 4 yr old red angus momma cow that is losing weight. She was pulled down last year by a calf that I didn't wean until it was 13 months old.

    Mixed Breed Bulls

    Young Cows Won't Use Back Rubber

    I purchased a 10' back rubber and soaked it with Gordon's back rubber stuff mixed with diesel fuel. I placed it at the only opening the cows can use to go between 2 pastures. My 2 bigger cows will walk through it with no problem, but my younger heifers won't go under for anything. They'll chase...
