We have sold 2 of these heifers--thanks Scott K. The remaining heifer is the more moderate framed heifer of the group. I can email a pic if you PM with your email address. She is priced at $900--yes, she has went up A BIT in price--but we also fed her all winter.  ;D  If I were to pick one of...

sent you an email Scott ;D

I am certain he was NOT in the top 5 steers--their comm. hfr. WAS in the top 5...did she come from Maas?  ;D

Sure could be--wouldn't be the first time I got faulty information! ;D

Fifth was a "char appearing" steer that showed as a Maine--I believe he came from Jeff Maas--shown by Ihns?

Champion was the Maine or Mainetainer--van Vliet's ?  I don't remember the order of the next 4, but I believe they included the Angus (Schneider), commercial ( Irwin girl from Crawfordsville are), reserve Maine or Maintainer, and either the Foundation or Simmy champion (Pemberton?).    Not huge...

So, is the peso worth more or less than $US ??    ;D ;) ;D

OK, with the large and diverse group of people that visit Steer Planet, I'm sure some of you have some knowledge of the meat goat business. So, here are a few questions for you goat experts:  What can you expect to pay for a competitive whether?  Any breeder suggestions ( we're in Iowa)?  Can...

See, now there you go---we're makin' progress now!

Forget the broken toes--I'm envisioning serious "hide-removal" from those feet if that fella does one of those "step-on-your-foot-and-twist" manuevers.  The bull does look good, Justin!  Now, go tell your sister to take off the flip-flops and put some shoes on...before my girls want to start...

I see no reason to remove this thread....it is great entertainment! ;D ;D   As for the "market price" of the heifer--I kinda doubt a single, haired-up clubby heifer would bring $1/lb. at most sale barns. That's not to say this heifer is only worth market price, but maybe you should have stated a...

;D ;D Holstein ;D ;D  Will add milk and growth, and no ( apparent ) concern about TH....  Sorry, I knew you could handle a joke, knabe. <beer>

Cowboy--sent you a PM.

I figured you had to have access to those products in bulk....where are you located--I might have to send a semi your way!  ;D

What is your cost per cwt. for the steam rolled corn, barley and oats? Do you have it available in bulk? Our only choice on any of the steam rolled grains is bagged, so we couldn't mix that for close to $300 per ton--wish we could!

I love rolled barley, but the only way we can get it ( in our area ) is in 50 pound bags--which makes it a bit pricey. If I could find a bulk source I would feed more of it. As for oats--if good quality--they are palateable, can prevent some digestive problems, and are relatively high in protein...
