I been at this cattle thing for almost 2 years. Learned a lot, still learning every day, got a lot left to learn.
I have 30 momma cows, all bought as bred heifers, or open heifers bred to my registered Angus bull. All that went pretty good. I'll take luck over skill any day. My second calf crop is on the ground right now.
During this time I have been developing my vaccination program. Next week is my first round this year.
Here it is:
Calves 60 days old to vaccinate
..............................................Who.......................Times Per Year........Repeat
Tetanus antitoxin.........................Steers.........................1...................4 Weeks
Bar Vac 7...............Black Leg........All..............................1...................4 Weeks
Vira Shield 6...........Respiratory......Calves.........................2....................4 Weeks
Vira Shield 6 + VL5...Respiratory......Cows & Bulls..................2....................4 Weeks
Long Range............Wormer..........All..............................2....................4 Weeks
Custom Pinkeye...........................All.............................2....................4 Weeks
Fly Tags.....................................1 calves/2 for cows
This one round is a little over $1,0000. That is crazy.
