    Bull or Steer

    To the original question at hand. Do you know anything else about the calf other than his birth weight. Like weaning weight, what did he gain a day until being weaned. what has he gained since being weaned, how has he been fed after weaning up to the point he is at now. things like that. there...

    Bull or Steer

    scroote wrote: Hey 3way, got your pm and thanks for the encouraging words. A man puts his bull up and you say cut, well I have every right to call it as I see it. Your mutts don't look much better. Why should I post pics when your buddy Doc Harris owns no cows and his words are gospel? One more...

All i know is that here it is not uncommon for a cow of the neighbors to get on us. if it is only one when we notice it we call the guy tell him we got a cow of his if he wants it right now we will put her in a pen if not than we will get her...

    Banding at birth tips & tricks

    We band at birth. You are going to get hit sooner or later doing it that is all there really is to it, even putting them in the back of pickup is no garuntee cause a mad momma is one athletic animal. banding them first like said is best than tag them. I will say take the time to make sure you...

    Shall I Eat It?

    this is exactly what i was thinking as well. even if i was starving and broke if i would not eat is on the simple fact that if i had one dead calf chances are i still have another live one i could eat if needed something that bad. one time i went to my father in laws place and ate a steak it was...

    Thanks USDA

    i am sure you are doing things in the southwest right exspecially for dealing with the heat. just like i am sure the people from Northern MN and Canada breed cattle to handle the cold. it was hot everywhere more than usual but up in this area we dont breed cattle for the heat and they sure are...
