    looking for aug. or sept. born steers

    I've got a really good hairy black Simmental, white faced, and a couple good black Simmental / Brahman crosses available.  VERY reasonable, located in Texas.  Both on feed.  email me at:  [email protected] for pics / prices.

    to whom it concerns.. update on deaves

    This has nothing to do with age.. and everything to do with responsibility and maturity.  Young people are giving opportunities  all throughout their lives to prove both, and it's up to them to decide how they are going to react. It is terribly immature and irresponsible to buy a calf, and keep...

    Simmy Calves

    Really nice baldy bull calf!  Too bad the white isn't on the opposite side..  <cowboy>

    Calving nightmare

    SKF.. so sorry for your loss.  Been there, done that, although not with a "clubby bull".  Just based on my experiences with purebred cattle, using a clubby bred would scare me to death.  Whenever you work with the crosses, it is such a crap shoot because it is so hard to predict the calving...

    Cow w/ gash and full of air

    Yikes.. it does sound nasty.  But if you trust your vet, I would think she'll be alright.  Make sure she's eating.. if she goes off her feed I would talk to the vet again.  Good luck!

    Cattle Today

    I'm glad to know it's not just me!  I tried to get on a few minutes ago, and it was down again.  Says there are "too many subscribers".  I was able to get on last night for a little while, but they were down Friday night also. Hope they get it fixed soon!

    Ford Pickup Owners.....PLEASE READ!

    I have to agree with most of the others.. the newer trucks just aren't like the older ones are.  We usually trade every two years, but I'm not happy with my '08 Dodge, after having three previous ones.  My husband still drives an 04 dually, with about 150K miles, and the only time it's seen the...

    Feeding Hay to showsteers

    We always feed free choice hay to the show heifers.. it helps to keep their gut working when they're on all that grain, and helps to fill them up.  I've never fed alfalfa... they don't need it if they're on high powered feed.  Try to get a grassy mix, like timothy, or better yet, hay grazer.  My...

    Wanted: Air Express Blower III

    In my experience, used blowers in good condition are hard to find.  If you go to any of the big shows, the show suppliers there generally carry a good selection of used ones that they've worked over.  I know that Sullivan's always has a supply of them on hand.

    electric prod

    We try not to use them.. but there will always be a situation when you do need it.  Like when the trailer is nearly full, and there's one cow that won't get on, and all the others want to come back out.   Especially Brahman and Brahman influenced cattle... it seems like they are more bullheaded...

    Need Hay!

    I was also able to find hay on craig's list... you might want to check it out.  More local people are likely to post there.

    Monopoly Steer (SOLD)

    Probably because the economy SUCKS, it's close to Christmas, and money is tight for many folks. But I agree.. a very nice calf.

    Where did you see them for sale?  I just went to the web site, and didn't find them.  :-\

    Simmentals at NAILE

    *sigh*.. I have the NAILE photos, but you'll notice they still don't have the class postings.  And there are no names for the pictures. I was interested in division champions and grand and reserve.  The cattle names... not the owners.  Thanks!

    Simmentals at NAILE

    Does anyone know the results of the open Simmental show at NAILE?  Can't find any information posted on the website yet..  ::)

    Simmi cows

    I haven't looked them up individually, but Full Figures and Perfector tend to be "leggy".. so use something that has good depth.

    halter breaking from the side

    You've got it made... good technique, and you're starting at the right age!

    grooming pants

    I don't like the heavy ones.. if they get wet it's like carrying around another 10 lbs!  I get mine at Wal Mart... I don't think I've ever paid more than $10.  Then when you ruin them it's not the end of the world!
