    best recipient cows for embryos

    I'm thinking one of our Red Poll x Simmental cows or even throw in a bit of Red Angus for a 3 way cross cow would make awesome recips.  If you keep them red, it would be easy to tell whether the calf is an embryo or a bull bred.  If using black embryos, use a red clean-up bull.  If using red...

    red polls

    Yeah, bwl, I remember the Shirlynne herd.  I ended up with one of the very last heifers out of their herd out of one of the National Sales at Louisville.  That herd sure made a mark on the breed.  I was young enough that I don't remember them well, but my Grandpa knew Dick and Shirley pretty well.

    red polls

    Yeah, we raise both Red Polls and Red Angus.  Grandpa started our Red Poll herd in the 1940's and we've still got a pretty solid nucleus of them around here.  We're currently running about 30 head of purebred cows.  We have also started to get into the Red Angus business in the last year.  We...

    red polls

    My family has raised Red Polls since 1941.  We love their mothering abilities and milk production.  They are a very docile breed for the most part and make great cattle for those wanting to do some niche marketing.  Most of them don't gain quite as fast or look quite as heavily muscled as many...

    Does anyone know what Red Angus Sire would be best for AI

    What is the best red bull to use to add depth of flank and heart girth?  I've got a pretty nice heifer out of PIE Hoss but she needs more depth of body, especially through her flank.

    Any Hoosier Beef Congress Reults?

    I think that all of the results for the weekend should be up on the HBC website by now.  Last time I checked, the pics of the top five weren't up there yet, but they should be pretty quickly.  The rest of the results were there a little bit ago.

    NAILE Shorties

    Justintime, I spent some time in the Red Poll aisle myself and found a few that I liked as well.  Which one's were the one's that stuck out to you?  I also thought that the Red Angus show was pretty impressive.  Didn't get to watch too many others though.  Sure were a bunch of good cattle in...

    How good were the Rhonda and Countess cows that were the high sellers?  I was pretty impressed with the pics and watched the sale online.

    ROAD WARRIOR on the Red road again

    Have fun guys.  Wish I could go. I also wish I had my passport and could go to the Soo Line sale and the Red Round Up deal. Hopefully one of these days I actually make it to one of these sales to meet some more RA breeders.

    Waukaru sale

    I know Barry and Toby pretty well and have helped a neighbor pick out a couple of their Durham Red bulls to use on his commercial cows in the past.  We buy all of this neighbors calves to feed and I wanted to get some english blood in them to make them more uniform and feed out more...

    custom fitting fees

    I have been asked to get a few animals ready for NAILE by a breeder/friend that doesn't have much experience getting them ready. Any ideas on the going rates for daily care and housing before the show as well as during the show?

    Sherriff Talyor

    I live not too far from STCC and have seen him in the flesh, running with cows. He is as thick and stout of a bull as I have seen, while still remaining sound and attractive. We have a daughter out of another clubby sired cow that is awesome and have flushed a couple to him, hoping to get some...
