We have a April 9 steer calf out of a phenomenal Maximus daughter. Sired by Eye Candy. He is the real deal. Cow was purchased from Jones Show Cattle. She was in their pure bred embryo program. PM me if interested.

The three C's is what I stress to 4H kids. Keep your animals cool, clean and comfortable. To many of these family's try hard but have no clue. but utilizing the thre C's is a good place to start. IMO.
