Hey Tim they are fine if thats were you intend on keeping them I use some of the same panels in my crowding pen. Some have been ran into and bent by my big cows,but they never try to deliberately run into them and escape. I wouldnt worry about what you have.They should be OK.

Yep I left my herd in an open field. As long as its not a tornado they just lay down until the winds pass. I have a barn but the horse is the only one who goes in ther. and he is free to go in and out as he wants. But cows have been in severe weather way before we started pinning them up...

I would watch how moldy the hay actually gets. I had a 7 month calf aborted because of moldy haylage. Everything Ive read says moldy hay is bad to feed cows especially pregnant ones. Just so happens I didndt know the haylage was moldy due to its appearance.

Sounds weird but I used fly predators and they seemed to work. All the big horse tracks use them. They are a little expensive but seem to be working here. https://orders.spalding-labs.com/whatAr ... dators.php

Just make sure you keep the balance between hay and alfalfa since alfalfa is "hot". The rumen needs to be balanced.

May want to look at this post. http://cattletoday.com/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight= If your putting with a bull tho I would let nature bring in the heat.

We AI and have had great luck with the cidrs ,although we use the select sinc method. We give GNRH on day 0 insert Cidr 7 days later give prostaglandin take Cidr out 72 hrs later give GNRH again and AI We have had great success with this There is more info at selectsires.com. Hope this helped.

Ill Take the 10th LOL Anyway LM I understand where youre coming from bud hang in there and keep watching You may even want a video camera. I was at work for my first 2 calves and my wife video taped the birth at night with a flashlight. What a woman.

It depends on what you ysed and what type of shot they were. If they were IM they shouldnt be golf ball size But some SQ shots stay a lump as they leach into the system. What vaccinations and what route did you use?

Sorry Bout that WD. We just had a cow spontaneously abort a 7 mo old fetus. We still dont know exactly why. I buried her that day. Yep it was a heifer we been waiting for, out of a good AI bull But thats the breaks.

Is there a web site that gives the daily active beef prices for Fla or is it a regional pricing? Thanks

You can breed a heifer before 2 years old. Its usually good to have her calving at age 2. As far as the bull Im with farmer Rich "Eat Him". I AI myself its cheaper and you pick the traits you want, and you dont deal with BULLS.

Thanks. This is my first try.
