Any interest in selling your eye candy semen? Or if anybody else on here has some they wouldn't mind parting with, I'd be interested!

+1 on the 7 triangle 7 school put on in Akron, Colorado by Harold Miller.

I love my Power Wizard solar fence charger.  A good friend nagged me for years to try it, I finally gave in, and today wouldn't hesitate recommending it to anyone.  I bought the biggest solar unit they had, the 500 I believe, and it works like a charm anywhere I've tried it.  Personally, I would...

Momma that thing is sick!  I probably won't got THAT crazy on a chute, but theres tons of ideas I'm going to pull off that puppy.  I am loving on that steel frame, with all pinch points virtually eliminated because of the high set feet.  Any preference of left hand versus right hand tilt?

I hadn't given much thought to a stand alone hydraulic unit for a stationary table.  That would open lots of doors.  One idea I was toying with was using an electric winch to bring the table over.  I don't think there would be any issues laying a calf over, but how much control would I have...

Hey everyone, I'm looking at fabricating a hoof trimming table.  Something for my personal use, an occasional cow or herd bull, but will be predominantly used on calves prior to sale and a few steers and heifer that I move locally.  I know my way around the old powder river tables, and am...

Bold Maneuver x Smoke cow.  A week off the cow, and first time getting worked on.  Potential?!

Had a baby calf born yesterday with some pretty bad knees on it. Calf was born big, around 90 pounds I'd guess, but was out of a very large mature cow. Cow is a comm. red angus cross, calf is out of a WMW son. Cow has never ever had structural problems with past calves, and this one isn't...

I spent a lot of time around Cowboy Cut as a bull and tons of his calves.  The bull was super moderate framed, big muscled, squatty, built like a tank as Rockin N mentioned.  He worked really well on those extreme old school show cows that need something to slow them down.  Heifers are to die...

Heres an update on the calves, thought you'd like to see the same ones two months later, with three days of work under their belts! 

Im pretty sure Im going to drag a pen of steers up to the NILE in Billings.  See how he does up there!  Anyone know what the sale averaged there last year???  I've looked high and low, and cannot find it for the life of me. :-\

Thanks for the opinions and interest! I'm excited to mess around them a bit this fall. I'll get better pics up when I start breaking on them. Any recommendations for getting my feet wet in prospect sales/shows? I'm pretty mobile And am not shy to travel a bit. Wyoming, Utah, Montana, Colorado...

We are located 90 miles Northeast of Denver in Brush, Colorado.  All calves are sired by Bold Maneuver (Eye candy x PB Galloway).  Bull was raised by Bobby Wellner, who also bred Eye Candy.  He was owned Steve Welling of Utah.  Calves born the last week of February through the middle of March. ...

Here are a few rough pasture pics we snapped the other day on a few of the steers.  Im relatively new to raising club calves, hoping to peddle a few calves this fall.  I can sell county fair steers pretty easily, but hoping to step up my game a bit.  Local consignment sales?  NILE? This type of...

Hi everyone, I've recently purchased a small hay farm in SE Wyoming, and am looking to revamp and rework an existing set of cattle facilities.  I am looking for input and help in designing an efficient set up that will be functional for many years to come.  This will primarily be used to winter...

So today I started a simple synch program on about 20 cows before they go out to pasture.  Just gave 5cc Lut threw on an estrotech patch and kicked them out.  This happened at 10 a.m. June 2.  I had a few cows floating around the corrals that were bred a few days earlier.  All of them were cut...

Eventually I would like to be able to own the cows, and breed them as I would like.  A flat rate would give me cash to purchase a few of the heifers I want.  She is getting to the point where its getting harder for her to care for them, but would like to keep her hands in the industry still and...

So this past week I was offered an opportunity to lease a a 40 cow herd of angus cows.  The lady leasing them is an old widow, and a neighbor of mine, who previously ran a fairly successful purebred operation along with her husband.  Since his passing she kept the cream of the crop, consistent...

Heres what I saw this morning.  Looked pretty flaky, no real substance or volume to the blood. 

So I went out to work with our show calves this morning and noted a bit of blood on caudal side of my show heifers tail this morning, but there was no blood on or directly near the vulva.  But it was close to vulva level, and was looked kind of stringy.  She should be 74 days bred.  Im pretty...
