    optefex

    optiflix and zilmaxx are different products.  i have used Optiflex last 42 days of finishing.  make sure your animal is really sound and fat before you start.  It will add volume of muscle, especially in the top and hip, but will also put some shoulder on them.  if you feed past the 42 days it...

    Bull choice

    to clarify,  is she a virgin heifer?  Ali is her sire?  if both are true, you probably need to look at a bull like Northern Impovement or The Answer.  proven calving ease pb angus bulls that should give you some extension and look.  The Maine calving ease bulls are mostly descendants of Ali and...

    man among boys calves.

    We have both BIM and MAB calves.  had BIM last year as well.  MAB does what he does, extremely well.  makes them soggy and big legged.  for me and my preferences.  BIM calves come pretty reasonable at birth and get better everyday through weaning.  I will need to see if the MAB calves do the...

    I believe semen only for auction?
