Really enjoy looking at pictures from your herd! Nice set of heifers. Good luck in Denver!  (thumbsup)

In our colder climate it is recommended that we feed them 9% protein and 60% TDN (total digestable nutrients) mineral supplements at 0.1 lbs per day 1:1 for legume based ration, 2:1 for greenfeed/grain/straw and their dry matter intake should be at 2.5% body weight of the cow. (plus their is...

Happy New Year to everyone ! All the best in 2013! <beer>

Your herd is looking really nice! But your killin' me with these pictures of green, green grass in December!  ;) Don't know too much about the double muscling thing, but I think that the Telestar 151 calf is just well developed in the hind quarter....

Great story!! Merry Christmas everyone! May you all have a safe and happy holiday! God bless!

Speaking from personal experience the media does not repect a grieving family's wishes at all. They will phone around and come to your town and see if they can find a juicy story. The fact that someone is grieving the loss of a loved means nothing to them except ratings if they can get the juicy...

I hope not  :-\ We really like our black angus cross with shorthorn. Not because of colour. We just think that combination works well together. If  blacks become unpopular than my poor 11 year old is in for a tough lesson. He just purchased his first purebred black angus cow. Well, at least...

Very nice! The white bull is going to add some size and growing ability to whatever he is breeding. Our blue roans sold well again this year. We sold two white heifers and they mistook them for charlois  ??? and one roan heifer as a crossbred  :-\ If anyone knows of a guys looking for shorthorn...

Don't want to get to theological here but, here goes. All man is born with sinful nature, because of the fall into sin in the garden of Eden. I do believe children are born with serious issues. They need all the professional help that you can give them.  I would like to share an newspaper...

It is hard to believe that someone could do something so awful. Our prayers go out to all those affected by this. "The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold." Ps 18:2

I may have to agree with you blackdiamond. The black one is either gonna surprise us or really disappoint us. My son picked him out by himself so I hope he did a good job. We weighed our steers today and the results are, black steer: 754  lbs red steer 840 lbs and yellow steer 920 lbs. The...

Like these guys on facebook, they do such a great job!!! <beer> http://youtu.be/LX153eYcVrY?hd=1

(lol) you think snow is bad this morning it was raining!! Rain in Manitoba in December can only mean one thing...horribe driving conditions because you know its gonna freeze in a few hours! The steers will get weighed on saturday, if I remember I'll post their weights.

same three steers earlier this summer

The steers are all 1/2 shorthorn from the same sire. The last picture is of the heifer my son pick as a project for this year. She is not a show heifer but I think she'll make a good cow. This year we did not give our oldest any advice he had to pick his own animals. He picked the black steer...

Its that time of year again for us. The kids have to have their steers picked by December 7th when we have Weigh Day. Our boys pick from what we have, we don't buy our 4-H projects. My niece picked a steer from our pen again as well, so there are 3 steers going to the fair in July. The pictures...

I just thought I would share with y'all that both my boys had to share a report with the class about their trip to Agribition. Our 8 year old apparently gave a very informative report with a lot of humour mixed in (according to the teacher) and our 10 year old spent 1/2 hour infront of the class...

The young women you are referring to... one of them must be me  :o because your daughter deserted you so she could sleep in the super cool girls room  (lol)

Elm Creek 4-H Beef Club would like to thank all the people on SP who volunteered their services for our clubs scavenger hunt at Canadian Western Agribition.  (clapping)  The kids really enjoyed meeting you all and getting your "autograph" was a pretty big deal. Lots of talk on the bus about a...

(thumbsup) Can't wait to see them live!
