    Gert Bull

    I really don't post on here anymore as life has just become too hectic as there is always something that needs tending to. Occasionally I will sit down and skim through some of the threads. We bought a yearling bull calf last March and we are really happy with how he has developed. I just...

    Fortunate Year So Far!

    We are very excited about our upcoming herd sire Rolling Oaks Grover. We have put him on the show road which is something we never do. Thought we would post him on here just because we really like him and thought some might enjoy seeing him.

    ?

    Copy and Paste: Heat and Bull Fertility

    Summer is a great time for a vacation but it is not a good time for cattle breeding. There are physiological reasons for not breeding, or not expecting bulls to breed your females during summer.
