    Possible monkey mouth calf

    Will Monkey Mouth calves make it to slaughter?  I have one that fits the description to a T. It doesn't seem to be a problem at 60 days but I have not put her into the chute to look close.

    Any Twins?

    NW Okla aint got no nukes    every few years we have numbers like this.  May have been going on for a long time but really knew for sure when we started calving in 40 acre pasture at the house instead of 5 miles away.  Probably picked up the genetics from a couple of Simmy Hereford bulls in the...

    AI bulls

    I have had two payback cows. One calved twice and had twins twice, she did not give enough milk to feed one calf let alone two. You may notice I refer in the past tense. The other has had two good calves, a little small framed IMO. She does not milk great ,but OK.
