    Precon Question

    We have used precon before on both our show steers and heifers from the time we get them to HBC Show in December and then we have taken then off of it (around anywhere from 700 to 850 lb calves).  This year we were thinking of continuing on and never taking them off of it?  Does anyone else do...

    "Believe In Me" or his son "I Believe"

    I would agree with the Believe in Me temperments.  They are hairy, thick and pretty to look at, but they can be a handful at times to deal with.  If you have a younger showperson, make sure you check the calf temperment/attitude....some aren't the best for little kids.

    Anyone using this new feed from Umbarger?  Any opinions?  It is supposed to be for steers (payload used for heifers) and it is a heavier fat/fiber, but cooler internal heat version of cattle blaster?

    Shorthorn - white leg hair advice

    Weaver's adhesive states that it will dry with a white tint to it.  How much of a tint is there?  Does the Weaver Brand white touch up dry with a bright white finish or more of a dull/flat white?

    Shorthorn - white leg hair advice

    Need advice:  we have a shorthorn steer that has white legs.  How do you build them with the white hair?  We had planned on using  adhesive like normal, but then do we just use Ultra white touch up paint to build with and then we are finished - do we need white paint to cover the touch up paint...
