I have ampules of several angus bulls...definitely older bulls/genetics.... bought with a tankful of semen from a former AI tech.... want to start using some this year... get back into practice and use some of this stuff... might as well try some...

Just a quick update... Got the coop set up; did feed and water in this morning..... had moved the leghorns Mon eve... after getting home from the dr appt and Rural King trip and some other stops along the way... did it right at dark and they are still half nuts... leghorns are flighty but these...
