So do most agree alcohol and dry ice make a better brand ?

Would liquid nitrogen make it easier ?

How do I mix dry ice and alcohol for a freeze brand? And how much do I need? 8 calves total. Have some weaned calves I want to freeze brand. First time thanks.

Lady. I don’t know what your problem is , but like I said. I am not a child go find someone else to pick a fight with. Judging by some of your comments, everything you say is negative. I have been in the cattle business longer than you have been alive.

That’s what I have in Oklahoma , not everything in Amarillo

Does this look like Kentucky to you ? Whatever arguments you 2 have. Keep me out of it. I am here to learn

Some years I AI, some years buy registered bulls. I will not buy a bull that’s NOT dna tested for epds and genetic defects. I run 800 mamas in my commercial herd. I always thought DNA /epd’s was the whole point of a registered bull ? If the bulls sire is a CED 10 and BW 1.0 , but his dam is a...

Dusty very possible. Hay was baled very dry and very mature. I couldn’t pass up the price. No weeds no stickers.

Keep some cattle north of Amarillo. Went last week and noticed a cow and a calf (not hers) with a cough. Spent a week out there , they didn’t seem to get any worse. I had switched thier feed to mature alfalfa (late bud ). I wanted to know what you all think may be causing the coughing ? Feed...

Thanks

Anyone know if I can use my stainless steel brand as a freeze brand ? If so will it work as well ?

Thoughts on this bull? V A R Signal 7244. Numbers seem good but, unproven. I am not to familiar with his dam or VAR. I would like to put him in some 16-17 month old heifers.

I heard oats is better for grazing ? Have 15 acres now in oats tempted to let the cows out but worried about nitrate poisoning. I didn’t add any nitrogen. Would it be safe ?

Who makes a better more MARKETABLE bull Rainfall or Enhance? Going to use on heifers. Cows I can’t decide on President or Elation. I like Enhance scrotal , docility , growth. But he is weak mid rib on back. I will keep heifers.

I agree JD balers are to slow

Thinking about it. An in line wouldn’t require moving bales in a non raked field.

Thanks for the help. Not to familiar with But SAV cattle. So you would use Renown over Resource , and President ?

I want a power bull. Do you think Renown or Resource will out perform President or Raindance ? I didn’t like the 1682 calves. They were out of Ten X cows. I even sold the heifers. From what I researched Power Plays dam is the reason to use him. Sandpoint Blackbird not 1682.

Was googling bulls to breed and saw VAR Power Play and SAV Emblem. Anyone know anymore about these bulls? Seems like Power Play’s strength is his dam, we used Payweight 1682 last year and cut them all at weaning. Thank you

Meant to post that I sold many pairs when I knew I could replace them with a better cow etc right away .basically a trade
