    Coon footed steer

    Thanks for the advice.  We had one judge bury us for it.  Most of the time it hasn't been an issue.  Just wanted to make sure I didn't start heading off in the wrong direction and try to fix it.

    Feed Recommendation

    We are only feeding 1 steer next year. Usually we mix our own custom ration, but the mill requires a 1 ton minimum which would probably not stay fresh long enough since we are only feeding 1 steer.  Therefore, we are going to feed a commercial ration.  Which one is the best and most affordable...

    PowerChamp and joint swelling

    Has anyone had any problems with Powerchamp?  I have a  steer on it and he has started swelling in his brisket and hocks.  He was a sound steer before I started using it.  Also have noticed a change in disposition. Plus, I am only feeding 6 ounces per day.
