    Line Breeding Whiskey

    Yeah to build off what gargan said, only major drawback is PHA possibility of her being a carrier is way up. But if the cow looks good I wouldn't hesitate buying her.

    Fitting Tips on Roan Cattle

    Yeah I'd say that one is a lot easier than it could be. I'd go with the mentioned tip use card board or I've used index cards from wal mart or parts of feed sacks to guide you to not cover white if you can help it. If it's a small bit like on your front leg I'd paint those red.but just make sure...

    Drugs for Hauling/Show Stress

    I would see if you can get vita charge boluses. If you can get those that works wonders, give them some before you leave then when you get to your destination give them some. Not sure if you can get ameraferm products in Canada. But that is what I would recommend.

    Why is Char bred so popular?

    Crystal he is talking about just the embryos. Depending on how many your cow flushes depends on what you can ask per embryo and if you don't put them in the embryologists recipes that makes the price go down.

    Where to start with hair?

    The only thing with slick shearing one is you are knocking on the door of being too late for spring shows. And you are too late to have hair for fall shows unless you bust your butt. I slicked my steer last week but he won't go anywhere till december, january.

    Freddy and Mark H hit the nail on the head it's all about breed advertising. That's why the black "angus" steers were so sought after for so long, the Charolais are now have their time in the limelight. Next up is the Hereford marked steers we are a cyclical industry. Won't be long till the...

But like hab said they will make great cows who you can then go back on with the monopolys, and clubby stuff of...
