I decided as long as I work at Trans Ova I might as well have a donor cow of my own. I have posted a picture right after I got her home in March and one from today. Just goes to show what a few extra groceries can do. Her numbers may not be exactly what I wanted but their not that bad...

Judith, Couldnt have said it better, as a matter of fact i didn't. My only differing thought is that if they froze semen or a tissue sample they may be able to wait until the rules change and since $$$$$$$$$$$ makes the rules eventually they probably will. WOW I am a cynicall B@$!@&#

Mike FYI Estradiol is NOT labeled for use in cattle and rumor has it the FDA is getting ready to come down on those that use it. I work for Trans Ova Genetics and we will not use it all until it is OK'ed by FDA. I use CIDRS and GnRH at day 0 and pull the CIDR and give Prostaglandin at day 7...

Keep in mind this is just my screwed up opinion. But I have wanted to say this for sometime, I just felt it was best to wait until it was over. I would still have felt this way even if he had gotten to a point that would be considered recovered I know this may not be the popular opinion but I...

His name was Dude, he was about 2 years older than me but as soon as I could sit up I was riding him, most all of what I know about horses can be traced back to him. He died when I was a sophmore in college so he had plenty of time to teach me as much I was willing to learn. He was dads left...

I can't really help you out much with the diagnosis but I would recommend if she dies have the vet post her. I know it seems like a waste spending money on a dead cow but if god forbid you have a severe out break of whatever it is at least you will be a step ahead of it. Dad had a bad run of...

Yes a brangus is an angus/brahman cross and a braford is obviously brahman/hereford. While I can't understand the desire for mini herefords or mini horses, dogs, etc. sometimes cross breds or "strange" breeds are the best way to go in certain enviroment, besides who can argue with the best...

That almost made me spill my adult beverage I laughed so hard, I think I'll try some of those ideas next time I go to town. :D

OT, if your ever in a situation like that again I would try to do the right thing and help you out anyway I could :D

Thanks everybody, Soapweed, the saddle is a Billy Cook but I really like it, its only had a couple of leaks over the last 2 years. :D I had to replace my old saddle that fell out of the pickup and wedged under the trailer at 60 miles an hour, thats what I get for being in a hurry. :oops...

He was bred in Odessa but came to me through a friend out of Alpine that moved to Colorado, and then sold him to me. Thanks for the compliment on him.

Just thought I'd share a picture of my newest addition he's a 3 year old that started out in west Texas and wound up here in Montana luckily he had some time in Colorado and to develope a winter coat before coming the rest of the way north. I think he's already more traveled than I am or ever...

Thanks for the help on such short notice she found a place to stop for the night she was hauling horses for a friend, not moving to Wisconsin.

I have a friend traveling from Delta Co to Wisconsin.She's leaving tomorrow (9-18-06) hauling 2 horses and she wants to stop somwhere around Lincoln NE for the night. Does anyone have any ideas of a good place to stop to let the ponies out to rest and spend the night? Thanks in advance :D
