    Opinions on Maine bull calf

    He's out of a son of The Man on a first calf Tyson heifer. He will probably be for sale down the road.

    THE FAIRNESS POLICE

    I'm a firm believer in the idea that the only way to make the show "fair" is to remove all rules. That way nobody is cheating and everyone has equal opportunity to do whatever they feel is necessary.

    Making Trip & Looking For Simmi Heifer

    Making a trip east from central Indiana to PA. Was wondering if anyone knew of someone with a good simmi heifer worth stopping and taking a look at. Would really like to find one. Let me know if you know of anything. Thanks

It has been a while since we have sold anything directly off the cow (usually everything we offer is sold through our sale or at a show). What would be...
