Then check us out. We have been serving the horse and livestock community since 1955. We are a 3rd generation pass down horse and livestock transport company...
... Leo, whoever told you that was irresponsible, IMO. A dexter should be given time to mature like any other cow, and they are better bred to calve at 2 years...
Leo, I've NEVER had a MEAN Jersey, even my bulls. BUT,,,, my Skippy "DID" get a bit aggressive at 4 1/2 years old. ONLY when he had girls in season IN with...
Leo, Take it from one that has purchased a 9 month old heifer that had her FIRST calf at 15 months old. It is NOT the thing to do. The calf had to be pulled...
Jersey cows are about the sweetest things on earth for their entire lives. Don't know who would have said different..... unless they were mistreated.' Standard...
I would say that the calf was big due to the bull that was used. Margie was bred at 7 or 8 months by Sammy and Vickie at about 9 months. Neither was on...
KC, I don't know who that woman is, but she must be nuts to trust a bull in any way let alone have it "follow" her all over. She must have a death wish! Skippy...
Hi KC, Just wondering how big (tall) are Margie and Vickie? I have a little bull I got from Fonnie a couple of years ago, and last year one of my little first...
That's so funny about the trailer. When a trailer pulled up, Sammy would bellow as well. Sammy would bellow when the bulls down the road a few miles would...
When Margie first freshened she was about 38" tall. Vickie was about the same. Thankfully, I've never had a problem with Margie, but I think breeding to...
WAIT. Wait until the size and condition of the heifers is correct for a healthy cow and calf at freshening. My little 45" cow was nearly 3 yrs old as a first...
We will be offering our small herd of mini herefords, 2 yr old bull, 4 yr old cow, 15 month heifer. All are registered polled and must go, will make excellent...
Good morning! Well, I'm making some hard decisions about my "herdlet" and have come to the conclusion that I'm going to put the reg. Lowline bull, ABF Fitz...
Hi all, Our heifer delivered a beautiful baby bull Tuesday night. Both parents are from Fonnie's stock and registered. We don't have the room for two bulls...
Hi, Where are you in central N.Y.? I'm looking at 3 farms from Albany to just south of Rochester for my Lowlines to live. Jay Hi all, Our heifer delivered a...
Madeline had her calf today at about 3:00pm!!!! I can't tell if it is a little boy or a little girl yet. I am just so thrilled!!!!~jules IMG_1272.JPG...
Considering there's nothing hanging down, I would say a girl. I don't know how you can stand not looking. The first thing I do when a calf if born is lift up...
If mama won't let you get close, just watch for when it pees. Back is a girl, middle is a boy. I once had a lady offer to sell me her two new bull calves. She...
The baby was born about 3:00 pm today and it is now 8:00pm. I have seen "her" (I am still hoping for a girl) stand and try to nurse but I have not actually...
Julie, If Momma is taking care of her, and not pushing her away, she's probably fine. Great looking calf - congrats. Jay The baby was born about 3:00 pm today...
Madeline the mom is being GREAT! She still has goopy stringO'stuff hanging out. When she pottied a short while ago I saw a bluish bubble trying to come out....
Yep - let it be for tonight. Jay ... From: julie sandoval To: miniaturecattle@yahoogroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 08, 2005 10:23 PM Subject: [miniaturecattle]...
Julie, Congrats on your new arrival. : ) The calf looks great! I guess you are little bit excited. Go ahead and check the calf. Usually the first few hours...
A. Don't worry. Look for shinny teats. When they are shiny, they have been nursed on. You can also tell because the hair on the top of the nose of the calf...
My first 2 were born January 7th and January 31st. They had no problems even though they were wet. I dried them good and waited till they were totally dry then...
