I would like to apologize for some of my posts earlier about the MAB clones.  I realize I took them to far and I should not have posted them.  I would like to say there was no offense meant to any of the breeders or owners.  Again I apologize for my comments and sorry for the inconience...

And they turned out on all 4 legs, they were structural train wrecks.  I'm just saying that there are other choices to use on those cows that do need powered up.  I'm just feel that those bulls had a lot more wrong than they did right.  They were stout, hairy, and had eye appeal.  And as far as...

Back to the bulls.  MAB and the clones are not that good.  Yes I would say he is one of the better Monopoly Sons, but how many other good ones are out there.  The only reason MAB got hot is his color and color sells in the fall.  Has he had any big winners, and he is how old now?  MAB's are...

Yeah that picture doesn't do him justice.  I have seen him in person a few times and that is not a problem for him at all.  I think he has all the pieces to be a great one.  He just isn't your typical high maine.  There are a lot of maine females out there that could use a shot of body and...

Yes Pryor Owns part of him.  Adam was the one that raised I-Deliver as an embryo calf.

I-Deliver is an I-80 out of a Hollywood/Irish Whiskey cow.  His mother is a full sister to that Anita Loan female that the Walker Family won Kansas City with.  He is a registered 3/4 Maine and is double clean.  Having that shot of Whiskey in there and being double clean makes him even more...

Exactly, I think this year the quality was better than last year, but there were so many train wrecks structurally wise it wasn't funny.  First, people keep talking about the MAB clones, I don't know what they were looking at.  They were so off on the legs and feet it wasn't funny.  They also...

In my opinion one of the most practical and functional bulls in bulls.  3/4 Maine, Double Clean, and to have that much body, look, and power.  He also in my opinion was one of the soundest and good on his feet.  There were a lot of structure problems in Denver this year.  The full sister to...

For sure go take a class and get certified.  I went to the Iowa State Dairy farm and took the class offered by Genex.  It was an awesome experience and gave me the confidence to go out and feel like I knew what I was doing.  I AI'd 20 cows this year right after I took the class and stuck 18 of...

I saw a group of Rumor Mill calves at the Colorado State judging contest.  I was blown away by the quality.  They were exactly what we were looking for in females: feminine in their design, tons of rib, sound, hairy, good bone, good structure, and just had a look that was second to none.  I...

Its in Louisville KY with the chis and maines next year.  We were told that at maine jr. nationals.  Not sure on dates just were its at.

I am going to a junior college first to get my gen. eds. done but I am stuck between these two colleges after the junior.  I have done a visit at Iowa State but was wondering what everyone else thinks.  I am dual majoring in Animal Science and Agronomy with a minor in Ag Business.  All opinions...

Ok get your notebook out lol, I just went through this with my calves.  Your calf is shedding, it is what his body is telling him to do because it is starting to get warmer.  The first thing you need to do is comb, comb, and do some more combing.  Use a curry comb, scrub brush, show comb...

I haven't seen any calves in person, but from what i hear from people he is the next I-80.

Great, were are you located?  Also when you say 12 weeks you mean 12 weeks between each time you have to put nitrogen in it again?  Also how many straws can it hold.  I am taking your advice on whether it would be a good tank for a beginner, but I don't think you could go wrong for 200. Thanks...

Looking for a semen tank.  I know some people sell tanks with semen in it and I would be interested in that if possible.  I am 18 years old and am getting certified here soon and am hoping to start my own AI business so anything will help.  Looking to spend around 300 for a quality tank.  I live...

Salty Dog is out of Heat Wave, not Hired Man,  I believe he sires a lot like Monopoly just pry not as much gutt as SD's dam isn't angus.  Very Stout though and pretty sound though for as much as they have.

Hey thanks for those, yeah i bought some beet pulp, so i'll try that.

Where are the spots at.  I have had calves rub a lot in certain years and the would be completely bald in some places.  IDK if thats your case just whats happened to me.  Ivomec should help though.

Just wondering what everybody is having success using.  I have used the common beet pulp, but what is everyone else using to get some gut.  I was also wondering how to add some more substance to a show heifer.  I am feeding the heck out of mine, but it just seems like she needs something else...
