    Checking cattle/vacation

    No that I can agree with the others on, Vacation ???? what is that ?. My idea of a vacation is when I get to the place and hang out with the cattle. I am afraid too much work over the past few months. Good to see everyone on the boards again. Thanx asking

    Checking cattle/vacation

    Boy I must be an outlier. Sometimes I get to the place everyday other times it may be two weeks. Hung a cowbell from my bumber, when I come in the gate the cows beat me to the pens hoping for cake. Still new to the game but have not had any serious issues as of yet. You would think the two...

    how can I tell when thier pregnant?

    I chased this one for a while, getting the sample was not a problem, tester on the end of a broom handle. Problem is tests look for HCG or human chorion gonadatropin, key word being human. I here they can check Progesterin levels in the milk though. vivkie the vet could weigh in on this one.

    I have three cows and no food.

    If you have six acres put them out on in (If there is fence) and buy a round bail of hay until you can get them to a better pasture (Lay off the beer, caution tape and extra goodies to pay for it) or sale barn. Look around one of the local ranchers may let you move them onto his place until...

    Ellie May or Vicky the Vet

    Vickie the Vet: Thank you for that response. As someone just reading responses I found this to be an incredibly valuable piece of information for future information. I do not know why I did not think of alternate routes of induction. Thanks ;-)

    How does sending cattle to a feedlot work?

    Seems like a common issue. The Ranch to Rail program seems restricted from my attempted contacts. Maybe we could pool together a pen from interested parties here in South Central Texas. Any takers?

    can i feed fish to cattle?

    If the cattle eat it, like I think they will, you could write the next Hollywood Box Office smash! After many years of feeding Herbivores meat one day you cut your hand no some barb wire. Elsie happens by, smells the blood and so the rampage ensues! MAD COWS racing through town munching...

    Loose Cows

    :o I am surprised to hear about the reduction in pink eye. Everyone I had spoke with told me to run from white faced cattle (Must have had bad experiences.) so when I went to buy I had already been prejiduced against Polled Herefords. I must say that I started out saying that I would raise...

    Cows for good butter making

    We stop by the dairy farm outside of town and pick up fresh non homogenized milk. We know the farmer and know his cattle are not treated with hormones. We have to take our own jar and it is further than the grocery store but sure worth the drive.
