I had some questions about harvesting some hay at my place. I called the county extension agent to come over and take a look. He told me that they recommend the hay be harvested every 30 day for maximum nutritional value. Otherwise the protein content would be too low. So with the small amount...

Look at your specifications for the linear ft max. 1.You may have too many feet of wire. 2. The amp rating could be for smaller cattle. 3. Good ground. Verify that you have a 4-6’ grounding rod with good clean contact. 4. Go with a heavier gauge stainless steal wire. A thicker wire will carry...

Some good info to read. http://www.herfnet.com/Genetics/epd_desc.htm

Looks like a good back-up plan if I decide to do this deal and need to unload. Thanks for the info.

Are you saying its to far a haul?

Do you have any info on the dairy sasle?

How much will you get for that Jersey in the pic?

I called to verify the breed. It is Jersey bull calves not HolsteinxAngus. What do you think of a 20-30 calve operation?

Just got off the phone with the man. Jersey bull calves at 35-50. No heifers at that price.

I should have more information by tomorrow. I will call the man today. I have not committed to doing this but if I see an opportunity to make some money I will.

Yes! 35.00-50.00/hd most any time of the year.

If you buy more than ten you can get a better price around $35.00./hd

They are within one-two weeks old bull and heifer calves. Not far within one hour drive.

I have been considering purchasing some bottle-fed calves. I can buy 10 Holstein cross (Angus) for $500.00. The more you buy the cheaper it gets. What are your thoughts?

All I know about the bull is that he is 3yrs old and has been producing on the persons ranch.

That seems a little young to breed but with the Charolais influence they may not come in until later. There are quite a few variables here. Do you have any numbers on the bull? All I know about the bull is that he is 3yrs old and has been producing on the persons ranch.

[hat sounds like a good combination. If the the bull is black you may get some grey calves that might get docked a bit at the sale barn. Do you have other cattle to put these with? Five heifers might not keep a bull busy and at home.] Yes I have three more heifers about the same age.

10 mo.old, weight ~600 lbs, vaccinated. That is all I know to ask.

I’ am buying five cross bread heifers (Beefmaster & Charolais) and a bull (Angus). We have already agreed on the price. I have not paid him yet. We are to complete the transaction on Friday. What are some things that I should know about his herd or questions I should ask before we complete the...
