It’s late summer and it’s time to get the bulls ready for the fall breeding season. There were 25 breeding bulls housed together in a pasture since they had been working in the spring. It is time for their routine breeding soundness exam prior to placement with the fall herd. Only half of them passed the breeding soundness exam and many of them had poor semen quality. What happened? Tune into Tox Talk with Dr. Brad White and Dr. Scott Fritz to find out.

The toxicology website and Bovine Sciences with BCI podcasts have been sponsored in part through a veterinary services grant that Dr. Scott Fritz, Dr. Steve Ensley and Dr. Bob Larson have received to share more toxicology information and examples for people to understand what to submit and how to submit. Another part of that grant has been working with people and producer in the field.
