    Bull calf 2 weeks early No suck reflex.

    Shot of Bo-SE is what I use for the one's that won't suck, my vet said it's a selenium defecincy. We are in a low selenium area though.

    Calf with neurological issues?

    Have you given him a shot of BO-SE? This has been a few years ago. I had a calf given to me that was born 4 or 5 weeks premature, the guy only AI'd and there's no bulls around his property, so he knew how early it was. Anyhow it couldn't maintain it's temperature and it would randomly have...

    Thawing colostrum

    That's normal in my experience, if you warm it in hot water from the faucet (don't heat it) the gelled stuff should melt, I think it's the fat/cream.

    Calf poop

    Oh and it's Not coccidia in the Calves that I'm talking about, it's a different parasite and they get the bloody poop at a week or less of age generally.

    Calf poop

    I keep a liquid dewormer on hand Valbazen I think is how it's spelled. Because I have trouble with parasites in the bottle calves I get from the dairy. They're born with them is all the vet can figure and as soon as they get bloody poop like that, they get the wormer. I also have an injectable...

    Keeping a twin heifer for a replacement

    That's good to hear! She's a Registered Gelvieh Heifer, so I was hoping she'd be ok. I can always have the vet check her to make sure when she is older.

    What Age of Bull

    Ok thank you all for the reply's. I have 2 milk cows, I tried a yearling heifer and she eats half of their grain. They're super slow eaters and I don't have time to wait for them to finish their grain so I put it outside after milking and the heifer shovels her mouth full, she's a pig... I was...

    What Age of Bull

    How old does a bull need to be to tell that a cow is in heat. I have a 4 month old bull calf and I'm wanting to AI so I was wondering if he is old enough to chase the cows when they are in heat? So I can tell easier.

    Am I Nuts??😂

    We had 2 highland bulls, my uncle thought they would be a good cross to make our jersey calves worth more. We had polled jerseys, and the calves came out polled and sold for almost as much as a beef calf, the first bull was dog gentle, but you really had to watch his horns, he would swipe at you...
