    im sick o these cows already. colostrum question

    I agree! When I go to work evertone talks about what they watched on TV last nite. I don't have time for TV, I would rather be out with the cows fixing and watching, just makes a person more relaxed and easy going in the long run, feel like you have accomplished something. Some days I wonder...

    im sick o these cows already. colostrum question

    DB I have the same problem with one of my cows. She never has let any other calves steal from her. I seperated her and a heifer that are left to calve and stuck them in with the yearling bull and 2 steers. They have been in this pen before with them so I didn't think it was a big deal for a...

    Bellering cows

    Our's have been very vocal, I thought it was just me. I kept wondering what was up. But every time I checked the momma's are just standing bellering with calves doing their thing.

    Did someone ask for calf pics?

    Nice pics! Kudos to your son on his lego building! Calves are cute running to catch up. You sure have alot of snow left up there. We got the rain and mud, then snow again and now froze up. Dreading the thaw! Thanks for sharing.

    Son's heifer had 1st calf

    Yes, he got his cast off about 2 weeks ago and he is slowly training for track. It is unbelievable how just 4 months ago he was in peds icu, and we were not sure of his outcome! He is back to doing light chores and taking care of his cattle, it really helped boost his mood to get back out with...

    Our son's heifer had her 1st calf 3 weeks ago. 88 pound bull calf. She had her own adgenda, 1 week early, unassisted, calf up and nursing in a half hour. My son is so happy. Nice to have some joy after a long hard winter. Just thought I would share. http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii44...

    CAN'T GET HEIFER BRED

    This heifer we kept pretty trim. The other was way to fat. I just can't see getting them all that plumped up just to show. It is a known fact that they are hard to bred when that big. In fact we had alot of people tell us we needed to put alot more weight on her. It just goes against the...

    CAN'T GET HEIFER BRED

    Vet checked her out all parts are there. Had a mushy cervix that is why we tried the antibiotic. I think we are going to try a bull. We need to find one first. Not to many in these parts. My son is networking with some people to see what he can come up with for a bull. He would like to stay...

    CAN'T GET HEIFER BRED

    The vet thought she had a infection in her cervix so we gave her a shot of antibiotics then went on to cidr her etc. When she did finally come into heat, it was a really nice heat cycle.
