[QUOTE="SBMF 2015, post: 1657641, member: 39695"] Good looking bull. Lots of good advice. When we have had bulls fail BSEs in the past we wait 90days and retest. I'd worm him, give him some Nuflor and a full size of Multi-min90. Turn him in with a cow (open cow if you have one). Then just wait and see how he retests. We used to test a lot of bulls at the sale barn (20-75+ per breeding sale) we got really good at doing a good job collecting bulls efficiently. We probably averaged 15minutes from the time the headgate closed to when we let the bull out and on to the next one. Part of that time was ALWAYS a min or two of extra palpation. That "foreplay" almost always made the bulls collect easier . Also probe position is just as important as the way the controls are ran while collecting a bull. [/QUOTE]
