That one, and maybe a couple more were "accidents". The neighbor's bull decided to come visit without an invite. He is a nice bull.......but the rest are all breed to a registered Angus.

 

[hoskvarna]

Thats what we have is Angus


From the Hills

 

[Mastermind]

We've just got a small herd. 13 nice Angus.....and one Jersey. The Jersey was for milk......but she is going down the road this summer. These Angus have a much easier time calving, and are worth more. Since it costs the same to feed em all.......well.

 

[hoskvarna]

We have 80 or so, we've milked a angus, don't have as much but good cream for butter.

One of the secrets of the Angus mother cows superiority. Richer milk for her calf than other breeds

 

[hoskvarna]

Yes sir, good all around mothers

I wanted to tag the calves as they were born. But right now there's just no way I could get away if one of those big black beasts took offense to me....

We have angus also, except the Red variety. Have about 35 calves so far. Best time of year for a cattleman. Got just a skiff of snow today. Good luck to all the cattlemen on here. Maybe we need a forum for fools that raise cattle.

 

[Black Dog Chainsaw]

My in-laws do about 150-200 Angus feeder calves at a time. Helps neutralize bad crop prices and hail damage the last couple years.

 

[Mastermind]

I sure love watching them grow.

One of the things I miss about spring on the farm, watching the little calves butt heads with each other
and run the pasture. We always had Simmental's.

 

[Mastermind]

I stood watching the little herd for awhile this morning. #7's calf started nursing from #8....and she just froze. It was like she was thinking......oh hell, what should I do????

I love watching them.

OK.....

[BGE541]

I was in 4H for 8 years, raised steers and boy did I learn a lot and good fun. Miss seeing those bovine from time to time

 

[Jetmd]

OK by me. I should have my tax return before then which will allow me
to throw a few more bucks to the cause.
