Called the vet office and was told need to vaccinate before 12 months old, or testing would be required after 12 months old. Are the vaccinations...

    Weaning

    We put fly tags in 9 cows and 10 calves and dectomax injection for the calves, then we separated the cows and calves. We put the cows on one side of the driveway and the calves on the other. These photos are about 6 hours after they were separated. Some of the cows have milk dripping from their...

    bull failed breeding exam

    We worked cattle the other day and had the vet test the bull for breeding soundness. The vet said the bull was at 25%. During the test the bull was shaking and went down in the chute-hadn't seen that before. The 33 month old bull sired 11 calves for us last year with 9 calving in 22 days and the...

    aluminum trailer floor

    Our 20' aluminum trailer floor is slick and am wanting to use something to help cattle from slipping and falling. If the trailer is full there doesn't seem to be to much a problem, but with just hauling one cow, they slip and slide and on more that one occasion the cow will be down when I get to...

    heifers calving - buzzards, feeding

    We have a couple of heifers that will be calving in two weeks. Moved them this evening to a 2 acre trap next to the barn to keep an eye on them while calving. There are hundreds of black headed mexican buzzards in this area. We have not had trouble with the buzzards in the past, but they seem...

    protest

    About 30 BLM protesters calling themselves Enough is Enough from Fort Worth and a few other confused souls came to a small town to protest a statue at the courthouse only to find about 500 locals that were not going to have any part of it. Don't think the locals were as much concern about the...

    LA 300 beyond expiration date

    Yesterday (it was about 100°) a 9 month calf had foam coming out of its mouth, and drainage and crust around his eye. These kinda things seem to always come up on the weekend when the vet is closed. We think maybe he's got pneumonia. This morning he looked better, his temp was 104°. We gave him...

    spring poem

    Last year after getting the mower out and having to start mowing the grass again, I had thought about spring and tried to make a poem out of it. It was a good winter, I hate to see it go. Now it's spring, and it's time to mow. Spring brings many things, chiggers, red bugs and such. Yes they...

The intent was to administer 5ml per calf, of each vaccine...

    cattle grubs?

    A couple of weeks ago noticed a small yellowish looking something hanging/attached on a cow in the brisket area and there was a small bump. About a week ago noticed what looked like bees on a cow patty along with a few flies. Then today the cattle, about 20 head, were running from place to place...

    Made in America

    Somewhat surprising to read China produces 95% of US consumed antibioitics, which is hard to believe, but maybe so knowing just about everything we buy here in the US is made in China. What percentage of products consumed in the US are made here and what's the importance of it? Don't know what...

    mandatory medicare

    Why is medicare mandatory? My understanding is at age 65 you have to enroll in Medicare Part A or you forfeit your social security benefits. I didn't ask for social security benefits, but after paying social security taxes for over 40 years, i don't want to forfeit benefits. We have health...
