In order for a calf to thrive, it must accomplish several things within hours im- mediately after being born. The calf must be able to sit up (sternal recumbency), stand, locate the teats and nurse. Any delay in nursing will have a major impact on the calf’s future since the im- munoglobulins that are present in a cow’s colostrum are best absorbed in the first four hours of life. Immunoglobulins are what protect a calf from disease caus- ing agents, and the absorption of immunoglobulins rapidly declines 12 hours after birth. Calves that are vigorous at birth have a much better outlook on a healthy future than those that are less vigorous (Courtesy photo) and are not able to stand and nurse advice on when to intervene with and a good candidate for early the chance of survival. soon after birth. a newborn calf. colostrum intervention.

    http://www.americancowboy.com/blogs/south-texas-cowboy/essay-contest-winner-heads- chuckwagon-cooking-school ESSAY Contest Winner - Heads to Chuckwagon Cooking School American Cowboy BY ROGER EDISON 3/21/2012 Kent and Shannon Rollins operate one of the most unique, as well, one of a kind culinary schools in the nation. Each spring and fall, they hold their semi annual Chuck Wagon Cooking School at the Red River Ranch in Byers, Texas. The school teaches students the culinary art of cowboy cooking using cast iron dutch ovens, all in an authentic setting working from a restored 1876 Studebaker wagon. Sourdough biscuits, baking pie crust and brewing up that rich taste of strong cowboy coffee are all part of Kent's school where cooks learn how to cook just as they did for the wranglers who herded cattle along the trail drives over 140 years ago. Kent's accomplishments for his culinary talent has earned him numerous awards, including the uncontested title as the Official Chuck Wagon Cook of Oklahoma, given to him by the Oklahoma state Governor. He also won the Chuck wagon Cook-Off Championship at the National Cowboy Symposium Celebration held in Lubbock, Texas and the Will Rogers Award for Chuck Wagon of the Year by the Academy of Western Artists. Featured on QVC, PBS, The Food Network's "Roker on the Road" and "Throw-Down with Bobby Flay." Kent entertains with a passion as both a modern day cowboy, story teller and one of the nations finest cooks. Recently, the Rollins offered a Contest for a scholarship to attend their cooking school.

    IGRA) Pre-Export Test for Rodeo Cattle of the Breeds Corriente, Brahman Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bulls (ABBI)* Guidance for Accredited Veterinarians

    Obtaining an Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) Pre-Export Test for Rodeo Cattle of the breeds Corriente, Brahman Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bulls (ABBI)* Guidance For Accredited Veterinarians For exportations of U.S. cattle of the breeds Corriente, Brahman, Texas Longhorn, and American Bucking Bull (ABBI)* to Canada on the Cattle for Breeding to Canada certificate for any purpose, an Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test is required for pre-export testing for bovine tuberculosis (M. Bovis), in addition to the caudal fold test. This requirement is as follows: Rodeo or roping type cattle limited to the breeds Corriente, Brahman, Texas Longhorns, and American Bucking Bull (ABBI)* (other than those temporarily imported under 90 days for exhibition) are also required to be tested negative by the Interferon Gamma Release Assay (IGRA) test in addition to the caudal fold test, regardless of end-use in Canada. The blood sample must be drawn between 72 hours and 30 days following the caudal fold injection. *NOTE: If the animal is considered an “American Bucking Bull/ ABBI” animal, but is not of the breeds Corriente, Brahman, or Texas Longhorn, the importer may apply for a CFIA import permit, listing the accurate breed lineage of the animal other than American Bucking Bull/ ABBI, and the animal will not require an IGRA test. In these cases, the entry of “breed/category” on the corresponding export health certificate must match the CFIA import permit. All animals listed as “American Bucking Bull/ ABBI” on the CFIA import permit, or in the “breed/category” field of the export health certificate must have an IGRA test, regardless of true breed lineage.
