    New Red Angus herd sire

    His dam came from the Pipestone herd through the Lucky C dispersal. I've only seen a picture of her as she is now deceased but she appeared to have an exception quality udder and excellent bone, width and dimmension being a big bodied cow. His weaning weight was not really all that stellar at...

    New Red Angus herd sire

    Here is our newest herd sire, Red Blairs Cash 29Z. We purchased him in Blair Ag's Pursuit of Excellence bull sale a few days ago where he was the high selling yearling Red Angus bull. He is a Red Corner Creek Cash 2R son out of their now deceased 72K donor cow.

    4 years ago tomorrow (Why is the SP Logo Red?)

    Red recruited me from another site and brought me here. Regardless of how bad of a day she was having, she was always supportive to anyone on here that needed it. Us "old timers" here on the planet know how things have changed from when "Red" was at the helm. Rest easy Red, we'll see you on the...

    Headed to Denver with this Red Angus bull calf

    The picture is from when i first roughed him out about 3 weeks ago. I probably should have had him in earlier but being that he was in the later calving group we didn't wean him untill mid November. Up to that point all he had was momma, grass and water. I think he has some potential, time will...

    Happy Birthday Red! Share a Memory!

    Probably the thing I will remember about "Red" the most was her ability to keep the "planet" at an even keel. Although there were not as many of us to keep track of back then, she always seemed to keep the peace among us when oppinions differed and tempers would start to flair. I never had the...

    Hay Prices in your area

    Because the state of Iowa is broke and they have figured out that they can make big bucks off of farmers and ranchers trying to squeak out a living. Most of the DOT officers I have dealt with would fine their own mother for being 20lbs over weight or an inch over width. RW

    The state of the planet

    At one time I was also one of the active posters on this site. It was a place exchange ideas with other experienced cattlemen or maybe try to help someone that was just starting out. Today I am more of a "lurker". I still come to the site and read a few posts but seldom post on any of them...

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    Sue, First of all let me make this statement - If I am hired to work a sale for Ranch ABC, I will do my very best to market their animals for them irreguardless of what their program is. I worked a sale in Oklahoma last fall and the night before the sale I was asked which lots I was going to try...

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    We had a bit of a scare with the Walkerton bull last year when he caught an infection coming out of Denver. For several months he was not producing semen and I was afraid he was done, especially after calving out all of our first calf heifers to him. After an aggressive antibiotic treatment and...

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    For my herd yes. A WW in the 400s doesn't really work for me either. I understand that the enviroment probably had some effect on the WW but after going 5 months in our critical grass growing season (june 3 to sept 23) with only 3/10 of rain, I think our enviroments may have been similiar this...

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    Just to clarify my original reason for this post - I am concerned about the direction MY breed is headed. This is not to say that I am following the trend myself but it concerns me that the entire breed will get the reputation of being small framed, low performing animals. RW

    Frame scores - how small is too small?

    I maybe should have been more specific in my original post. Is there a realist place for a 3.25 frame score bull (several) in a bull sale geared towards commercial cattlemen acrossed the U.S. in a breed other than the low lines? Honestly, the data that goes with these bulls is pretty...
