I saw your video on the calf that had black stool and you had to lasso her and treat it with corid. Now I see why you asked me to keep an eye on black diarrhea and bloody stools. Thanks

Hey man, love your channel, love dexters, I appreciate your videos, time, and knowledge. Plus you actually respond to people on your channel, which I think is important. One day your channel is gonna blow up due to these crazy algorithms and I know you won’t be able to respond to everyone, so I’m here at the beginning hoping to soak it all in while I can… So over last summer I got 4 dexters, 2x 2 year old heifers and 2 cows 5/9years old. The lady said they weren’t pregnant. Over the last month or so, I’ve noticed the 9 year old cow get rounder and rounder, noticeably more bulgey than the others. Today i noticed what I thought was movement in her stomach area, towards the rear of her torso and on her right side. So naturally I been watching YT videos all day and night, and I really think she might be preggo. Her hooha is fairly swollen but not all loosened up and droopy, I swear her udders are looking more full but I can’t be sure on that, and she stays at the hay trough long after the others like she’s eating for 2… I was gonna make a short video tomoro and post it up and I’m hoping you can take a look and gimmie your opinion please. I’ll come back tomoro and put a link to my video. Thanks for your time buddy

I wean mine here at 6 month'ish of time. I tried letting nature run and had more than a few having new calves eating while the free loader from last year was also eating. Not that it hurt anything, but didn't like the yearling stealing from the newborn. Also, it is nice to have the yearlings out of there when calving, I have found in some cases the yearlings to be in the way causing trouble when the cows calved. Also, I can get the weaned steer calves on their feed program sooner.

Tp I hear what you’re saying. The yearling steers are by far the most annoying animals on the farm. Drive me crazy sometimes. Thanks for watching!

is it ok to feed cracked corn to cows and calves? thanks
@dexterranch
@dexterranch 2 жыл бұрын
It’s fine in small amounts. This is how a lot of people finish there cattle right before butchering because it adds fat quickly.

Hi There. Is there a way to tell the difference between a black polled Dexter and a black polled lowline. Thanks
@dexterranch
@dexterranch 2 жыл бұрын
Hi! Visually they are going to look very similar. The only way to be very sure is if they are registered. A lowline could never be registered as a Dexter.

@@dexterranch I was feeding them cow hay in square bales until Friday when I got a round bale of cow hay. The heifer always had the "lumpy pile" feces and the cow the typical "cow pie" soft type of stool. I give them 12% All stock sweet feed and the alfalfa cubes you use for treats. Treats to make more friendly and docile. Thanks
@dexterranch
@dexterranch 2 жыл бұрын
If the round bale is something different then they are used to then it could be that. I know mine have cow pie in the summer but in the winter as they start to consume more hay it changes a little more to lumpy pile. It could just be the transition period. I would just keep an eye on it over the next few days. If you notice it turn black or notice blood then you have a problem.
