    NAIS @ Colorado St. Fair

    Denmark, has a good handle on cattle and data registry. All dairy cattle are registerd in one of three databases, and herds are classified into one of four category risks for Salmonella transmission. As with zoonotic diseases, Salmonella may only be transient in these cattle, but if your...

    Treason!!!!

    I can't disagree with maintaining individual rights or freedoms as outlined in the Constitution. However, frivolous lawsuits for "big money" is not right either.

    Just the FACTS! Response from SD BIC

    This was starting to creep down the page again. I would still like to see the other SD beef association's response to SODAK's posts.

    E-coli From Slaughterhouse--Brand Names

    What I find confounding, is that there was only 1 site where contamination was detected. I may be wrong on that, but that is only what I have seen from reports Mulitple sites and mutliple sickness would suggest that the pathogen was present and proliferated somewhere in the fabrication and...

    R-Calf and Swift Horses

    You know, I probably haven't looked at ranchers.net bull session in almost a year, and in that year's time not a thing has changed on here. Same old tuants, jabs, and barbs that were apparent then are still on going. Must be fun for some I guess, because from those that are posting it on...

    Busy Thursday Morning

    SW, Polly sounds like a steer my wife talks about that was at Iowa State. He was around for a long time. She said many a vet student would go down and talk to him and rub his head for luck before tests.

    Busy Thursday Morning

    Don't worry faster horses, they were sedated and didn't feel a thing. It's less invasive than cutting a DA. I checked on them yesterday afternoon and they were laying around ruminating as if nothing had happened. These cattle are treated very well with health and well being monitored at...

    Chicken Replacing Beef

    Well RM, I'm here to learn. Would you share some of your insight and experience? The way I look at it 75% or greater of the bovine's metabolic needs are met through the use of rumen by-products, with the C2, C3, and C4 VFA's being utilized mostly as energy, but some enzymatic conversion of...

    Chicken Replacing Beef

    That's a bit of an apples and oranges comparison, especially when comparing a monogastric to ruminant species.

    Growth promotants make tough meat

    RobertMac, "Eliminate HGP and antibiotics...opens the door to the EU market...increased demand!" I don't disagree with ya, cause in theory this would be true. In reality, I'm not so sure.

    Gathering and loading four bulls, a pictorial account

    We don't have any cattle and currently board our horses. The place we board keeps a menagerie of chickens, ducks, goats, and there is always a gaggle of tenage girls. When I go out there and ride I can barely hear myself think let alone hear nature. I'm definitely envious BRG!
