[QUOTE="p2p, post: 559131, member: 4707"] I have three longhorn pairs, the calves are about 2 months old, two bulls, one heifer. How soon do I castrate? When and with what do I vaccinate them? How about the mothers, when do I worm and vaccinate and with what? We have about 16 head of roping cattle (includes the pairs) on about 10 acres, so we are over stocked. How often do you vaccinate recreational cattle like that? Are they as susceptible to disease as beef and dairy cattle? Also, the cows are open as we sent the bull home due to problems keeping him out of the neighbors. We have also have 5 new heifers. Is it too late to bring the bull back and get them all bred for next year? I don't want to calve in the dead heat of summer, but don't want to have everything open next year. They aren't worth anything right now anyway, other than to us. Oh yeah, we are in the central valley of California. Thanks so much [/QUOTE]
