Two Stage Weaning

Once again, we weaned our first group of calves using the Quiet Wean.  19 were put in on Wednesday, July 24th and 19 were removed on Monday, July 28th.  Cows hardly made a sound in the first 24 hours since the calves were removed from their mothers.  A few calves make some noise when they see people around, but nobody is trying to jump the fence or climb the walls.

A second group had Quiet Weans put in on Monday as well and will likely get pulled out on Saturday.

Weaning Is Underway

We started weaning sale calves this week.  All calves have also been vaccinated in preparation for our September 13th (rain date September 14th).

Sires of calves that will likely be in the sale include Boardwalk, Eye Candy, Gigolo Joe, Mercedes Benz, Ohio Senator, Right Answer, Unstoppable, and Walks Alone.  Tentative sale numbers are 12 steers and 5 heifers.

Ohio Senator Steer

Tag 45, Ohio Senator X Ali steer born on February 18th.

Genex semen will be available for pickup at both the PEI Easter Beef Show & Sale in Charlottetown on Thursday, March 27th and at the Maritime Beef Test Station Sale in Nappan, Nova Scotia on Saturday, April 5th.

Customers who pick up and pay at either of these 2 events receive 10% off any bulls that are eligible for discounts.  Minimum purchase for the discount is 10 straws of any combination of bulls.

There are also a number of bulls that are available for $10.00/straw.  These bulls are not eligible for a further discount.

If there is something you would like ordered in that I don't have, please let me know by Sunday, March 23rd.
