    Feeding Bull Calves

    I have a young purebred Galloway (surprise there) bull calf, born 7/22/09 that I am wanting to keep a bull a while longer to see how he turns out. He is a thick little guy, and has good size for age. Was just weaned from dam two weeks ago and then we took him to NWSS. He has been on a small...

    Blocking Chute Pictures?

    Does anyone have (or could take) some pictures of the head gate handle assembly on their chute? My dad is making my chute and has everything done but the head gate assembly. It's just like a Sullivan's chute, I just can't seem to find any pictures online of the handle assembly up close. I am...

    Lots of Questions!

    OK. I have a couple questions. My show is August 17th-22nd. Anyways. Here are my questions. I am showing a cow/calf pair. Should the cow's udder be empty/full/half-full?? My plan was kind of to let the calf nurse at 8AM, 12PM, 4PM, and the show is sometime after 6:30. If she is on a regular...

    First 2009 Calf!

    Just wanted to share a picture of our first calf for 2009. She is a little late, but we are very excited to have her :banana: -we are hoping she's going to set the standard for the majority of this year's calf to all be girls. Last year we had 8 calves and 6 of them were boys! One down, 12 more...

    Galloway females-advice/comments please!

    I am considering some of these females at an upcoming online auction, but would like everyone's idea as to which females they really like. We are looking in the 2003-2007 age range, but an '02 or '01 may be OK as well. I have a few I particularly like, but will wait for some comments before...

    Amount of Feed

    This is kind of a basic question but I am looking for information. I own Galloways, a "moderate framed" cow. They are on slim pasture, and have access to the woods where they do most of their foraging. I am looking for guesses on how much they will eat per cow during winter. They are bred for...

    Prospective Bull-Comments Please!

    I am into White Galloways, and already have a few, but am looking into getting a new bull for the new genetics and to use on my heifers from my bull of the last two years. He is a long yearling, weighs in at about 800#, which I know isn't as large as you will all like, but remember, Galloways...
