Howdy, The biggest reasons would be location. (south-warmer climate, north colder climate etc...) I am sure if your in North Dakota, you really do not want a newborn calf in January. In Texas, its not so much of a problem. The next reason would be bull corral location. Otherside of the farm...

Howdy, I would suggest that if you have a PI issue, you should contact your vet, do ear notches, don't let any animal on or off the farm. Get the ear notch results back and seperate herd, sell off PI animals, make a large note at sale ring that animals are slaughter only. A PI animal will only...

Howdy, The same thing you will propbably do with you herd. Get a bag of tags, color of your choice, design of your choice, and tag some cows. Say you picked orange tags. Say you neighbor uses yellow tags. A pretty easy identifier if they got mixed up in a field. Maybe you have some commercial...

Howdy, Bovi-Shield Gold <-- live modified vaccine if she did not get the yearling booster... then DO NOT USE Cattlemaster Gold <-- killed vaccine You can use this. also, make sure you read the label. Does it say that for all bovine? I believe there is a comment which is about DAIRY cows.

Howdy, I am assuming they are new borns. Usually a good dipping of thier umbilical cords with strong ticnture of iodine helps keep them off each other for a while. Bottle feed more.
