    HELP please.... steer not gaining

    He is at 1120#.  County fair is Aug 6th. State fair is Aug 21st.  The pic attached was taken today.  I think he needs to put more weight on just starting to get the fat pockets by tail head.

    HELP please.... steer not gaining

    My daughters steer (purebred shorthorn) has not gained any weight in the last 31 days.  We had a lot of trouble with him bloating and not eating for a couple months but we finally got that under control.  We had to take him off grain for 1 week and feed only grass hay.  Then we started him back...

    Opinions on my daughters Shorthorn steer

    Cool Room floor....

    I will be building a cool room this fall inside of our barn.  It will be 30x15 ft and about 9 ft tall.  Right now the barn has a lime floor that is about as hard as cement.  Not the best for drainage.  We were planning on digging that out down to the sand where the cattle will be tied.  I'm...

    Best CE bull to use on my heifer

    I have a March 2013 Monopoly Money heifer that is out of an Angus/Meyer 734 Dam.  She is pretty short and coarse fronted.  I am looking for a bull to use on her so that i have a live calf and cow.  Not as concerned about what the calf looks like the first year.  She is also a TH carrier.
