Is he eating? I have posted a good article about the problems i had with a calf in the health forum. look it up. Why give up so easy, increase his feeding add some electrolytes, I have a ton of advice if you need it IM me. sometimes a little extra time and patience can work out for the better

my husband had a broken hand from punching a really stupid holstein in the face ( it was a 4H steer) he wouldnt break very well and almost trampoled her, we laughed about it after the fact but he was in alot of pain, I received a huge bruise on my thigh when a angus kicked the bar off of our...

Our cows got out about 2 months ago, and decided to go exploring, somehow this gate magically opened by itself, we think someone let them out, luckily they were tame #1500 lb. steers just fresh home from the fair so we tied them to the back of a pick up and home they walked! but the nerve of you...

that is funny wish I could, I have two still at that barn and two 4H beef steers coming october 21, I just told them (inlaws) that for the last 2 years I was doing just fine learning everything for myself, and I am in the process of going to school to become a vet, and would appreciate if she...

I wouldnt worry to much about the headbutting right now, probably hungry, later though if he still does it smack him on the end of the nose, we had this problem with head butting and when a #1425 steer does it, its not cute anymore and very hard to break when they get that big

Yes but is that calf blanket solar powered? I think you guys got something there

Here in indiana our calves are high, I just bought a calf that roughly was 300# for $400, but they also know i was buying it for a 4H steer so that always raises the price

i agree Im guessing a real rancher is someone that has hundreds and hundreds of acres of land and maybe he thinks people that are "real ranchers" shouldnt offer some advice to us small town folks, I dont know but I have a farm , Im not a hobbyist I am not a real rancher but I sure appreciate All...
