    Help Me Vote Obama Out

    I don't normally comment on stuff like this (although I enjoy reading them!), but since we're on the topic of Gay Marriage... one thing has always puzzled me. Most religious people (and I consider myself religious) use the excuse "the Bible says its wrong" in their opposition of gay marriage...

    Pregnancy blood testing

    Last I spoke with the folks at BioTracking they were working on it. The EPT thing will not work because cattle don't possess the same protein in their urine as humans do during pregnancy.

    Pregnancy blood testing

    It really just depends on the individual. For some (and probably recommended as the "easiest") the tail vein. That's what BioTracking lists, but I've found it rather frustrating at times because on some cows it will just flow, others it drips, and others we cant get anything. For those who know...

    Pregnancy blood testing

    It is very accurate, I've have been told the only reasons it not right at 100% is because you can't take in account the number of abortions. Say a cow really is pregnant at 30 days, but over the course of the first trimester she looses it, it will make the test look inaccurate. At any rate, we...

    check this bull out!

    He looks OK - you can't really tell much from that picture. I know Mark has started doing them at that angle, but I really think the standard profile is a must to get a better evaluation (best evaluation would be in person obviously).

    Is a grain fed bull worth it out on pasture?

    I don't know if this has been mentioned or not because I don't have enough time at the moment to read all the replies. But, the rumen is actually very key when cattle are forced to make the transition from full feed grain to just grass. The bacteria in the rumen need time to adjust from grain...

    Needed: pictures for livestock judging

    My judging team used Judging101 -  and to be quite honest it is a real let down. The classes are NEVER updated, About half the class do not have official placings or reasons, and DO NOT let your kids get used to judging any type of livestock in 2D. While getting out and actually looking at...
