Okay then who is she out of and where did she come from.????

You weren't over at Steve and Virginias were you that looks an awfull lot like one of theirs. That is a sweet heifer.

Doc would it be safe to say in some bulls that maybe one or the other just swims faster most of the time??? And that would explain why you can get a bull that throws mostly heifer calves??

Sorry for your loss. You know I wouldn't raise cattle if I couldn't raise what I love, I guess I'm in it for the cows, and this little bunch of comm Herefords raised 5 kids, put them all thru college and is raising 2 families right now. (They might not be able t pay for the nursing home but hey...

Alright so lets hear who is on the protien causes high birth weights side and who is on the side that it doesn't. I just had this debate and was proven wrong, so I want to hear what you all think. I'm on the fence about it. My dad swore that it made his calves monsters, I think it was more the...

I sure wanted to go to Bakers sale and the VanNewkirk sales. I like some of Holdens bulls, I was all set to go to their sale last yr, but got shut down. Bull sales to me are like horse sales, it is so hard to remember that I am broke and/or don't need it anyway!!!

My family has been raising horned Herefords for 80 yrs, and we are awfull proud of them. We dehorn our 2yr. olds calves at birth then dehorn everything but replacement quality bulls when we brand. I would say that out of 30 bulls I can hand feed all but 8 and those where purchased bulls. Now...

I don't know if this has been proven by the experts or not, but I think that when you pull a calf you take away from the natural process and that something doesn't get triggered in the heifer. I have seen this in several of our heifers over the years. They act like they don't know what has...

Ok I'm slow that is a joke right??????????? :???: :???: :???:

We had a CH bull. Named him Jim. Man was he ever a big bull, and thats not a good thing. I like some others that I've seen though. And they have a nice set of cows.

We had 11 dries on 360, we will be doing the rest on sun.( hope God forgives me!!!) I was happy with that , hold your breath, that was the first time we had ever tested our cows, we always do our yearlings, but never our cows. I guess dad always felt they were doing their job and wintering a...

We live in the middle of an oilfield and we see our fair share of about everything. We have had a couple with those pipe ends on thier feet, we also lose one or two to hardware which if we can prove they will pay us for. One heiffer this summer died at the head of an oilwell and they paid for...

H76 Who 's the bull on your avatar??? Goodlookin' bull :)

Yeah yeah yeah. Our neighbor who raises comm. cattle( rainbow) but uses a Hereford bull gets those calves on his cross back heifers. But heres what I think. A good herd is a good herd. And I feel that in our herd that we have done a great job of eliminateing the bad and keeping the good. Now we...

AAAAAA that is terrible. It's like watching a train wreck, can't help but looking. We live smack dab in the middle of an oil field and although have never had a cow die like that, we have had several from oil hardware, one heifer this spring was rubbing or laying under the head of an oilwell...

We used to pony our heifers and steers. It got them halter broke and helped work off the belly and add muscle. We also used to put a little milk replacer on their feed that helped with the belly.

Soapweed have you tried putting cooper in your tanks. We do and it sure makes a difference with the alge and stuff. My hubby also puts some fish in the ones that we heat in the winter. That can be comical the first time one comes up when a horse is drinking. :lol: I always enjoy your pictures...

Our yearlings have been terrible this year about messing with their water tank. Every other day we have to go fix the float or something. The tank is a temp. tank in a pasture we rent so we can't do anything permenant. I went over yest. and they not only had the float knocked off, but they had...

We are 35 miles from the nearest scale, we are thinking about buying a scale and weighing our calves here instead of in town. What do you all think, do you take a pencil shrink, how much?? Let me know what you think.
