I used "Set Me Free" on a couple cows this year.

Thanks for your replies, I ended up breeding her last night. I gave her a cysterilin the first time I bred her. This time I didn't because I forgot, BUT its good to know that its common because normally I breed them and turn the bull in and don't worry about it. This year my pasture isn't quite...

I Ai'd a replacement heifer on May 3rd, she is in standing heat today, I bred her on a natural heat, I know she has had cycled at least twice before she was bred and they were all strong standing heats. I've never had one come in this late. Is this normal? Think she is bred/open? The only one...

For what its worth, I asked Chris Saturday what he thought he is going to work best on and his reply was Sim x Angus cows. He said the Salty dog cows and hired man cows are making good cows for them.

Here is some of his pictures

Yes I saw on his Facebook page he has a couple that he is promoting for his sale, like he did last year. I guess one of them is a BIM.

OH Breeder, Just curious what do you think I should breed the Hard drive x vegas  heifer to? I pulled hair and she is THF. The top heifer is THC and more than likely will end up in the freezer. I was thinking going shorthorn or sticking with Maine. thanks for the comments

here is another heifer that is greener and needs some time but thoughts and opinions are welcome. sire: Hard Drive Dam: SULL BLUE MARY ANN ET *xAR49169 ( VEGAS X SULL STOCKMAN 365)

I will try and get a couple different pictures. I know the one posted isnt the best. She seems to be uncomfortable with her head tied so high.  I was just going through pictures on my phone and thought  I would see what people had to say. I thought about taking her to the Norfolk, Ne show this...

sire: commercial sim x angus (legacy g151 son, Alliance son) dam: naughty pine x ice pick DOB: March 26, 2013 All opinions welcome. NOTE: just a cell phone picture taken after a rough clip about a week ago or so.

Yes, we use it on our lambs along with body builder from essentials... I know a couple of families that use it on there goats along with the show whether top dress from essentials. Usually start them on it last 30-40 days or so. I think it helps them stay fresh if you go out and show every...

Jamie is a real good friend of mine, located 20 minutes north and west of Grand Island, NE. Real good set this year!

I back all my show lambs into panel, be careful of the tail though, if it hasnt completely healed from banding it can cause it to bleed, then you have to deal with scabs and stuff... I also have backed them off the trailer too. Both work it just takes time and patience, some lambs I've basically...

We AI all of our replacements and keep their first calves back. Usually all the heifer calves and a bull calf or 2. Been doing this for a long time

Thanks!

I'm just predicting its going to be a hot one this summer in Central Neb again. Does anyone slick shear their cows before they go to pasture to help keep them cool in the summer. I have an eye candy that is loaded with hair and was thinking about slicking her off. All of our farm ponds are dried...

I have a couple of monopolys and I'm going with Rumor Mill. I contacted Pat Wolfe (one of the owners)  and it sounds he is working really good. But I also think direct whiskey and I80 or I67 (I80 short on supplies) would do the trick! good luck!

I really liked him in the yards in Denver, I thought he balanced up real well and was an overall really complete bull. He was a little bigger framed than most of the bulls and I think he will add that to his offspring.

We have tried the cattlemax this year, I guess my only problem is loading it out in the field. 9 times out of 10 we dont have good enough service and it takes forever to load everything. So what we have been doing is writing everything down and then at night putting it into the computer... I...

I bet she is just smiling down on you today! That is awesome! I wasn't an active poster back then, I've been a long time watch and learning since about 2008 on this site. Red was a wonderful person from what I have saw! RIP Cathy
