The Long Yearling Bulls (Fall born) The bulls were weaned, (with no creep) and preconditioned. These bulls were fence line weaned on grass and continued to limit graze, post-weaning for several weeks. Late summer they were started on a high roughage ration consisting largely of corn silage, wheat/oat/triticale/rye grass baleage, Bermuda hay, hominy, and corn gluten feed. How the bulls are handled... 1. Bulls were vaccinated at 3-4 months of age for BVD, BRSV, IBR, PI3, Pasturella, and Clostridial disease. At weaning, bulls were given a booster for the same. 2 . Bulls were not creep fed at any point and were weaned on forages with no grain. After a short adjust- ment period following weaning, they all began our on farm performance test. ET bulls are so noted in the sale book and were raised on recipient dams. 3. YFF has been Johne’s testing for over 24 years (JPL4). Bulls were tested negative for PI-BVD. 4. Bulls were scanned for ultrasound measurements by Andy Meadows, DVM, a B.I.F. and AAA Cup Cer- tified technician from Springwood Livestock Management Systems in Wytheville, VA. Bulls were de - wormed and received vaccines for BVD, BRSV, IBR, PI3, Pasturella, and Clostridials. They were also given an Endovac injection. 5. Bulls were given a complete breeding soundness exam by Dr. Jeff Nordin and Dr. Joel Riley, from Saluda, SC, in January or February 2026. Bulls were vaccinated for Leptospirosis, Vibriosis, and given an Endovac booster. A word about the Females... The females are straight from the heart of our herd.
