    New Study, 30 precent more likely to die early

    :lol: :lol: Who conducted this study? The Pork council? :lol: :lol: It's kind of like Coke putting out reports that Pepsi leads to higher death rates. (I'm sure that really didn't happen), but it makes you wonder who is conducting the studies. :???:

    Suitable breed for mountain farm?

    Unfortunately you will get biased opinions on which breed to use from people on these boards. While some of the suggested cattle might be right for your operation, I would also suggest that you contact the packers and see which cattle they prefer and which breed you will get a premium for. I...

    Easy way of grafting a calf onto a cow!!

I recently had a cow have a calf, but she would not produce milk. :mad: (needless to say she is about to grow wheels and go on permanent vacation). I had purchased another cow last fall, and she calved shortly after I bought...

    Hair loss

    I'm glad that someone takes care of and pays enough attention to their stock to notice things like this! I'm pretty sure that she has lice from what I can see. It is hard to market an animal who has bald patches and parasites, so I am glad you are taking action. It is a real shame that people...

    ??Keep or Cull?? (Pics)

    They all give tons of milk. Just curious, but how can you tell by a pic if they give enough milk, especially when the pics are of them when they are not lactating?

    ??Keep or Cull?? (Pics)

    I agree that pretty doesn't count for commercial production, but I have never seen an ugly calf win a show, and that is what these cows are used for. Thanks for the comments!

    ??Keep or Cull?? (Pics)

    I have some cows that I am on the fence about...Should I keep them or cull them in your opinion?? Pics were taken a few months ago the day after the ice melted from the big ice storm we had. All three are heavy bred and weeks away from calving. This cow is 6 years old, she is extremely pretty...
