[QUOTE="Jeanne - Simme Valley, post: 160872, member: 968"] Genex is offering sexed semen this year on beef bulls. Haven't seen a list of which ones yet. Instead of a 50% chance, you will have an 85% chance. Not sure if they will have "bull" and "hefer" smen. We have wormed cows & calves about 8 weeks after being on grass, and again in the fall - for many many years now. If you worm in the fall, than they shouldn't have a "load" of worms until they have been on grass about 8 weeks. Time enough to consume worms but before the worms start producing eggs to be deposited back into the fields thru the manure. Helps cows produce more milk also. Latest info says "older" cows really don't need to be wormed as much. they build a "resistance" to worms. [/QUOTE]
