I agree with Knabe 100%. I had been running my barn off a circuit from my house and a generator for years. 2 years ago I put in a separate meter with 200 amp service. Here in TN if you have a 2nd meter, then you get charged commercial rates which stinks but I have all the power I need now. Any...

Pretty cool map. Thanks, Knabe

medium rare, I am like you. I don't understand how people continue to sell semen on bulls and not have the testing done, genetic or parentage. Case in point is a very popular bull that this past fall after having sold semen for a year was all of a sudden tested and found out his sire was...

Yes, they are both lethal to the calf. PHA is lethal to the cow too, the majority of the time. TH usually isn't. TH will usually add traits to the calf (more hair, better bone) , I don't know that PHA by itself does.

beebe, if he is a PHAC then I'm out. If he is DSC or THC(not both) but good enough with a good enough pedigree for me to want to use him then it would affect the price. I would be more liberal with a DS then a TH. As far as how much it is hard to say until the moment.

I check DNA status if needed because of pedigree. Doesn't necessarily mean I wouldn't purchase one that is a carrier, it would just affect the price I would pay.

Nice looking heifer Mark

Medium rare, I hate to hear that for you. Yea, I don't hesitate to use him on virgin heifers. My 4 go to bulls for virgin heifers are HC, Deception, KOLT Kane Nitro and SLF Red Hot Commodity. Those bulls for me can be used on heifers and still get a marketable calf. There is a lot of heifer...

I guess I've been very lucky over the years. I have a 24' Eby and have pulled it from MI to Texas to SC to IN, IL, OH and so forth and have never been stopped. The one state I won't pull to is IA. I've heard too many horror stories on DOT stops there for not having a DOT number posted on your...

Mark, I didn't say that you would get a DS calf. I said you could get a DS carrier. Big difference. When you go to market cattle, there is a lot of people that won't buy any animal no matter how good they are if they are a carrier of any genetic condition. That's why I said that he may want to...

That's what is good about a free world. Everyone has different opinions and can speak them. As far as Evolution on being scared of BWT's because of some cows in his pedigree, I've not personally heard of anyone having issues with BWT's. I know that I sure haven't. As far as Fireball goes, on...

I didn't look up their numbers to see if they have been tested or not, but they all have a potential for being a carrier of either DS or TH or both. With that being said, I would make sure I bred them to something clean. They are all out of good cow families and could produce you some show...

I agree on the depreciation fact. The aluminum trailer is going to not only outlast the steel trailer probably 4 to 1 but the resale value in the first 10 years is unreal. It was a very good decision on my part when I made the switch.

For cattle trailers, the top 3 in no particular order in my opinion is : Eby Wilson Barrett

Or pick any bull and do IVF and reverse sort the semen. There is some that don't reverse sort but not near as many that do.

I know Martindell Shorthorns got along real well with Just Rite. I still have a cane of semen on him.

I would say that Red Advantage has made an impact in the breed. Look at his son Red Reward.
