Bovine Viagra!!! For your bull's sake, spread them out 2 or 3 days apart. Groups of maybe six or so??

A friend of mine used charl. semen on angus cows. Real nice calves, growthy and strong. He also plans to make a killing selling them as club calves. Pretty hot combo in the show ring. I also like the combination.

They are trying to finally bring embryo technology to the masses. Genex, Alta and Select all have donor heards now and are planning to possibly start marketing through thier catalogs.

I make 15 a unit, up to 20 head, 10 for more head, but I have been doing it for quite a while. I recommend holding off a while before you go out and start selling your skills, you can make enemies if you have problems, or don't settle as many cows as they think you should. You should be...

Kept ropin' steers in Illinios for about three years. NEVER again, god forgot to give them hair and resistance to upper respiratory. Below about 15 or 20 degrees they need a wind block. You can keep your southern cattle they truly are the wimpiest puniest things on earth. It's amzing how angus...

Yeah, Stutzman Feed Mill in Arthur Illinois is the only place I have seen that sells them. I have used the trojan in small and medium sized tanks in that part of the country, and I really liked them.

You guys should check out Double Diamond genetics in Chrisman IL. I youst to be the herdsman and breeder there. I don't remember what his billing list was, nut he takes alot better care of your cow than trans ova does. Clear Creek Farms runs a recipe herd in the same area. Another good...

Hey hutch , who is flushing your cows?

Oh!! Sorry, that might take some patience and Rx. Good luck with that.

No tranquilizers, get em in and git r done. all you have to do is clamp down and puncher the skin with the tatoo crimps for split second. as for as bushing or rolling in extra ink, it's not that bad they'll act stupid, it's managable. Some times if one is being a real @sshole I'll use a halter...

Leaving the cidr's in for an extra three days could hekp with those cows that have weak heats or never express any heat. I usually breed at 60 to 65 hours. Yes, at that point they are usually still standing, but I get them when I know they are hot. I have managed to run a consistant 80% using...

Teach them how to drink!!! ASAP

If you can find some Animax cream, it workd=s really well on most eye infections.

I know a guy in the midwest who raises some bucking bulls. He has one or two PBR bulls and a dozen or so prca bulls. but, it has taken almost ten years to get to that point. Your input is huge, both financially and physically. The only way he made his pay for them selves was to run bullriding...

DUH!! Whay was I thinking, one word Richie.

Okay, I'm fairly biased seem as how i am a technician, but AI would be much more cost effective and managable for your situation given you have some place to catch them. It can be a wonderful tool if managed right. You can use far better genetics, your cost per pregnancy will far less, and you...

May I also recommend putting heat tape around the lower part of your hydrant (under ground). Just because they are designed to drain back, doesn't always mean that they will. This way if by some chance it does freeze up you can just crack the valve open alittle bit and plug in the tape for about...

I've seeen cows share calves, milk multiple calves, and be protective of others calves. But i can't that i have ever seen a cow just up and leave her calf with a permanent babysitter. Makes me wonder how much milk she has iand if it is any good. My bet is that you may want to think about culling...

hey stewart, the most likely thing is that your cow is cystic. its been to long since calving for it to a infection related to that. by now she would have gotten toxic and really sick. usually a cow that retains a placenta or gets a uterin infection will show serious signs within a couple of...
