A question for the Simmental breeders. I was wondering if anyone has had much experience with the LLSF Vantage Point bull. I had one embryo heifer out of him and she turned out real well. I bought a few straws to try on my own cows but wanted to see if anyone had used him much and what you...

If anyone is interested in a bull or heifer we have lot 18 and 91 at the Ohio Beef Expo Simmental Sale tomorrow at 2 pm est. There is a lot of good ones here this year!

We had a calf that was born in the mud. When I found it. it was almost covered in mud with barely its head sticking out. Took it to the barn and tried for a few hours warming it with blankets, hair dryer and an electric heater. That wasn’t making much of a difference so we put it in a tub of...

First calf of the year. Heifer calf out of Oracle. Haven’t weighed it yet but it looks small prob 65-70lbs. A second calf cow that moved up about 2 wks from last year. I’m always excited for calving season even when it seems to bring more work.

So we had these 2 calves that we wanted to band but didn’t do it at weaning since they already had all that stress to go through. They are now both 10 months old and the one I had no problem but the other one there was no way. We have a bander made to do large calves I’ve done them at 12 months...

We have 4 cows due this fall. Had the first one today. I think the smallest calf ever for us 56 lb bull. He is PB Simmental out of Dew North. Not the best pic but she wanted to just run away with him

Was working some cows with hoof rot the other night and took a few pics of the bull calf that stands out right now as a good herd sire prospect. Wanted to see what you guys think about him. His mom is right behind him in the first pic. I don’t think the pic does justice, he is purebred Simmental...

I took a steer to butcher tonight. He was raised on a nurse cow with another heifer calf that I lost both cows. His weaning weight was 460 at 220 days old. He weighed 1446 tonight at 16 months old. We fed him about 12lbs a day of 12% protein grain mix and free choice hay from weaning to about...

Have this 2 month old bull calf that I just noticed walking funny today. When he walks straight it’s hard to notice anything but if he turns his hindend is wobbly. I put him in the chute and palpated it and couldn’t feel anything and it didn’t seem hot. When he runs he just kinda hops with his...

So to start off with I am a new guys on this forum but I have been reading posts for a few years just never felt the need to post. We are a small family seedstock producer raising registered simmental. Due to a very unfortunate situation I lost one of my best cows today to pneumonia. The...
