There are Brahman cattle here in Wisconson and they don't freeze. :D

WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--Government investigators looking into the latest case of mad-cow disease in the U.S. won't likely be able to find the source of the cow's infection, a Food and Drug Administration official said Thursday. Stephen Sundlof, director of FDA's Center for Veterinary Medicine...

My point is that Brangus "crossbreed" is a Registered Breed of cattle today, since 1949. One doesn't refer to a Reg. Breed as "crossbreed". More Brangus are bred from Brangus to Brangus breeding than any other way.

When you work Brangus you have to lead them not push them. If you try to push them through a gate they will go everywhere ecept through the gate. Lead them. Get a sack of feed or bucket and lead where ever you want. I have led them from the back of my pickup just by shaking the bucket. When you...

I think that cross would work for you although you must chose for ease of calving. The 3/8ths Brahama would be the best chose not just a half blood (F1). The Brangus would work for you also and would make the herd look alike. Good luck

I think the vet should tell the client that he will take care of the dog and then give it to the humane socity for adoption. The vet should offer to set the leg so the pig will have some comfort. At no cost if necessary.

Why want you feed coastal to horses? My horses lived entirely on coastal and grass. Now that was well fertilized coastal.

Brangus is an American breed. See the attached site. http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/breeds/cattle/brangus/

Alex Dees ranches in AZ and he raises Brangus. I would suggest that you go by his ranch and see what you think. I believe he has a web site, if not go to the IBBA web site to get his address.

I guess the trip from Texas to Wisconsin with my 16' trailer and three heifers just took on a new twist.

Tail heads to high??? Is that a Hereford thing? I have been raising registered cattle for over thirty years and I have never heard of a tail head to high. Ho well I am young yet. Nice to learn something new. :o

Yes you can buy better bulls. A better bull will turn your herd around in short order. Plan to purchase the best bull you can afford. A rule thumb is to estamiate the combined value of your top three cows and plan to spend at least that amount on a bull. The calves he produces should be better...

How much does the 15 mo bull weight and how much do you want for him? His sheath would work up here in Wisconsin. I found a table developed by LSU on the ALOT Angus Assocation web site that would tell you how good he is by comparing weight and age.

I would get an Registered Angus or Brangus bull. The are easy calvers and will turn the entire herd black and get away from that "Rainbow Collitation" look. Then if you are not happy with the calves I would look for another type of bull after you know more. In you area, Houston, I would use the...

Minerals act on the cows the same way chocolet works on people. If you haven't had much in a period of time you may eat a lot then tapper off. If it is offered often you may eat it a little. I crave sweets. If I go a week or so without them I crave them and will eat a lot if given the chance...

I don't know where you are in WI, but in Jefferson County area (SCWI) I couldn't fine minerals for grazing beef cattle. I have to get my minerals when I go to see my family in Louisiana. They are salt controlled for intake therefore the cattle won't eat enough to harm them. I feed them free...

I understand about likes and dislikes of people, but the fact remands, more beef can be produced per acre with two smaller calves than one larger one and a large cow will require more grass than a smaller one. I can remember when we raised those frame score 10 cattle that were over six feet tall...

I may not have chosen a big enough number of pounds per arce to make this appliciable. But if you had two cows each weighting about 900 lbs and each producing a calf that weighted 400 lbs wouldn't that be more beef produced per acre that one cow weighting 1600 lbs and weaning a calf that...

Interesting. If an acre of land can support 2000 lbs of beef is it better to have smaller cow that will produce more calves or large cows that will produce maybe one calf? Just thinking. :roll:
