My husband and I build and maintain websites and have several clients.  We have probably the cheapest rates around and I make updates fast. And, the big kicker....we only charge for time spent doing something. If it takes 5 minutes, it is 5 minutes billed. we also are doing a breed association...

AJ, Your story was great to read and think about after the fact, but I can just imagine myself doing the same thing. There is something about cattle that won't go where they are supposed to that only makes us want to push them and prove we are going to win!!! Unfortunately my dad found that...

Ok, so who has ever lanced an abscess and cut a little too deep or long?? I just did that. I thought to myself.....I think I just killed my cow!! She has a case of lumpy jaw. Vet was out about 3 weeks ago and gave her NaI in the vein and at that time the lump was very hard and in the lower jaw...

Is there anything out there in a tank heater that runs on battery? I don't have electricity at my tank and boy oh boy is the ice getting thick when its -5 outside!

Brown Swiss were actually started from the Braunvieh a long time ago by selecting for milk.....today they are so different that they have no genetic relationship any longer. Our breed association. did some blood percentage testing of Braunvieh a couple years ago and the results were that...

Yes, you are right OFS, there is no other breed in Braunvieh. Braunvieh means brown cow...in German.  The Braunvieh do have a little bit of leather compared to most breeds and this heifer does have a bit more than I would like. Those that are real clean fronted do look very cool. Thanks...

We have close to a foot here and I think it may have finally stopped. But the wind is howling now at a steady 25 mph and wind chills are around -10. I am soooo glad no one is calving right now and wish I had moved my spring calvers home a couple weeks ago where they had some protection. ...

Yes, she is out of Oz! She will sell on Friday, January 15, at 10am in the National Braunvieh Sale at the Livestock Auction Center in the yards at Denver.

You can join 4-H at age 7 here and you can take any project you wish, including market steer or heifer. Most little ones don't take steers until they are older but can if they want.

My husband went to the Graham School in Garnett, KS. It lasts a full 5 days and teaches preg checking, breeds, animal health, nutrition, basics of doctoring and ends with AIing. My husband thought it was great all the different things he learned in a vast area of raising cattle but would have...

Hey everyone. We raise strictly purebred Braunvieh cattle so we don't deal with cllubby genetics (or hair..lol)  but would like to know what you think of this heifer we are selling at Denver in January. She is a purebred Braunvieh that just turned a year a few days ago. She is sired by the bull...

They are so cute. Thanks for posting. Babies of any kind are cute if you ask me and I just love to see a happy baby calf.

We used that exact generator at Denver a couple years ago and it had plenty of power for a blower and clippers running together.

Was there a climate change?

Thanks for the help y'all!! The calves got a new buddy last night and today with the much colder weather are starting to eat.

Yes, we have them in a small pen and no the grain is fine. We are feeding this same grain to 10 other head of calves that have been eating it with no problems. Thanks for all advice, I am going to try some of the ideas. I do have some probios and some milk replacer that I could sprinkle on top...

Sorry if this is something that has been posted before but I couldn't find anything quickly when I searched. I weaned 2 heifers 5 days ago. They weigh about 475 each and were June calves. No creep feed before. They are in a pen together and started on grain and hay. The hay is the same as they...

Our family extends the deepest of condolences to your family...what a terrible tragedy and may God help you through this time. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Happy Birthday, cowboy!!! What a great day to celebrate...I hope you have a wonderful day and get to relax and enjoy it!!!!

I don't think it will matter and I do think sometimes it makes it easier for judges to describe the cattle to the crowd. I have also seen bob tailed cattle being shown and to me that may be more noticeable but also didn't seem to affect their placing.  I do know bob eared cattle take a huge hit...
