    Rectal Prolapse in Young Bull

    We have a new registered Angus bull out of SAV Resource 1441 and OSU Empress 2114 that was born Jan 5 of 2015. Last night, I noticed him riding one of the cows and swung by him on the ATV. He had an anal prolapse that would protrude out 4-6 inches when he'd mount, then slide back in when he...

    ATV Trailer Design.

    I thought I'd share my design with you all. I scoured the internet for weeks and saved images of all the ATV trailer I could find. Then I took the good and bad from them all and made my own. Works like a charm. Heavy....yes...but functional. I love it. I just need more than this little 400 to...

    How to handle death loss on gain contract?

    I'm just curious how everyone that runs summer calves on gain handles excessively high death losses.

    Rattle Snake Bit Treatment?

    I've got a #600 heifer with a swollen right, rear, leg just above the dew claw. It seems to have two marks on it (like a snake bit).
