I was thinking about buying a few head of beef cattle from a farmer I know. He said he got them from another farmer claiming to be red/black angus cross. The black ones seem like angus calves to me but the other colored calves look like they might have some jersey in them. Anyone with more experience have some helpful insight for being a little more certain? I don’t need pure bred angus but I don’t think I want jersey quality beef submitted by /u/No-Criticism-6926 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I know their breeds but wanna see if anyone can guess. 2 black ones are one full blooded breed, the brown and red cow are another full blooded. And the tan with white on his muzzle is another. And the black and white is another submitted by /u/Generalnussiance [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

He was fine until yesterday. I can stand him up and he will support himself but has no movement on his back legs. He will drag himself around with his front legs. Getting ready to take him to the vet but has anyone seen anything like this before? He doesn't seem to be in pain and has an appetite. submitted by /u/KadenaSucks [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

I have an approximately 2 week old black Angus calf who just 2 days ago was full of energy and bouncing around to now is laying down and doesn't have energy. He has scours and is being treated but nothing seems to be helping. Up to last night he was eating very well and seemed to be improving in his condition. Now not so much. We've tried calling vets but nobody is responding so we can't get anyone to look at them. What is this and how can I help him before it gets worse? submitted by /u/Nonbiinerygremlin [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Stock up Now! Food shortages are coming to America. This has been projected, albeit quietly, by experts for the last couple of years as a “perfect storm” of events threaten both the supplies available as well as the infrastructure to produce and distribute food. Meat is especially challenged with chicken and beef facing attacks on multiple fronts. submitted by /u/Cosmicsheepman [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Hi, Can anyone advise on good low-cost options for cattle tracking and management systems for about 400 cattle. I'm envisioning something along the lines of RFID tags with readers mounted at key points (like pen gates) so that I know when/that all of the cattle are back in their pens at the end of the day. Cattle rustling is a major concern but also would be good to know how many cattle would be going into a certain areas every day and make sure they're all back safe in their pens at night. I think RFID may be the only option? but was also wondering if Bluetooth/WiFi systems exist that anyone ..read more
