I'm feeding them alfalfa from last year.

I'm doing as much research as I can and finding out all kinds of stuff. It can e sores in their mouth, but all of them; I don't know.. It could be that the hay they're eating has some kind of fungus on it so it might be contaminated with this fungus. Not sure. I might start feeding them...

I have several cows that are drooling. Some more that others. They are all between 3 and 6 years of age. They are all eating and drinking water just fine. They all go to the hay when I feed them. Anyone seen anything like this. Not sure what this might be. Been going on for a few weeks...

I want to thank those of you who took some time to comment on my post. I treated them with excenel for now and will keep an eye on them. Some of the advice helped a lot and since I like to work the cows myself I hope they get better. I did some research and if the excenel don't work then I...

Please help, I have a herd of 18 cows that are 3plus years old, 4 yearlings and 11 heifer calves from this year. In the last few days I noticed some of them coughing and one that wasn't eating as it should. I suspect pneumonia and treated that one with excenel but am afraid I might have to...

I have few cows that are coughing and am afraid they getting sick, pneumonia. Used excenel on one of them already but am afraid might have to treat others. I think most of them are bred except a few maybe. What would be best, excenel or nuflor. Worried that they might all get sick and really...

If that's the case then I suppose I can steel castrate him and fatten him up to 1100-1200lbs ha. I think he's around 850-950lbs now. Just wondering?

Well I've heard some people say that the meat of a bull is tough and bla bla. I'm not sure if that's true. I've been raising cattle for three years now and this would be the first one we keep for the family and wouldn't want to be disappointed.

Hi everyone; got a question for those of you who might have done something similar. I kept a bull from last year and he's a little over a year now, maybe fourteen-fifteen months old. I'm thinking about castrating him and selling him as a steer. Is it too late to cut him and keep him for beef...

In need of advice! I have 8 heifers that are 1-2 years old and running with a yearling bull since first of july. Bull and heifers didn't get vaccinated for breeding. All they got was vaccination shots around April/May. Is it too late to give heifers vaccine shots for breeding or something I...

hi, does anyone know why a group of calves that are between one and three months old would have a soft yellowish stool. Just noticed it on some of them in the last two to three days. I don't know what it is and would like to treat it asap if is needed. :help:

Did finally find time to put them in the head gate checked the lump on their jaw. They both feel very hard and are staying the same size. The lump on them are not getting any bigger, cows are eating like usual. Their appetite is good and I haven't notice them being down or away from the other...

I want to thank everyone for their info so far. The abscess on these two cows is on their jaw right below their mouth/neck. One is on the left side of one cow and the other has it on the right side. Had the same problem on a different cow last year. Took it to the vet and all she did was poke...

Thank you rockridgecattle. We'll have to separate them from the other ones we have and treat them. Now, this two cows are preg and should be calving in a month or two. Will any of this affect their pregnancy or can we wait till after they calf? Just wondering what my options are.

Hi friends; can someone help me out a bit here. I have a couple cows that have an abcess, one on the right side of the jaw and the other one on the left side. Is said to be a superficial bacterial that is not in the bone. Just don't know what to do for them. If anyone has had similar problem...
