When I was purchasing fish, the only thing Hy-Vee and Walmart carried was fish from china. I refuse to buy fish from china due to their "fish raising policies" (you can google and realize you probably do not want to eat them either!!). Schwans fish, on the other hand, come from the US, New...

What makes you think that we dont know it? Just cuz we dont use big fancy words don't mean we know nothin. You shouldnt under estimate the us, we know a lot more than you think. Just sayin : ) Really? Is that statement a joke? I do not mean to be rude (hard to believe for some, I know) but you...

Strength, peace and compassion to your school. This brings to attention that bullying isn't something to be laughed at, or ignored, at yet, when ask, many on this board responded that the one being bullied should "just suck it up" or "get tough".... Maybe easily said than done? I would...

Commercialism

It frightens me that our youth of today do not know basic current policy/legislation that will affect the beef industry.  Isn't that what "showing beef" is about?  Or is it truly only about winning the purple? COOL basically boils down to having meat products labeled from which country they...

Thanks for voting everyone! Keep it up I feel this is important, but.... I was told in a  PM that I am a negative, horrible person for always "posting negative things about government or groups". So, I guess I shall hang my head in shame and feel bad about posting against the h s u s. Shame on...

Might sound minor to some, but you might want to show Pepsi, and hsus how you feel about the hsus signing up for a Pepsi grant to "help abused and neglected animals". I think we are all aware of the fact that the hsus gives only $1 for every $200 donated to actual care of animals. So...... Go...

What are we voting on? I thought you had already decided to stop the voting and divide into catagories? Is it a "wanted" catagory? If so, then yes, that would be good, as long as that is what people used it for. I guess I just assumed that "wanted" would be a catagory to begin with. If your...

I can see it both ways... the Iowa Expo is one of the largest juniors shows around, and so you have to keep a tight rein or it will be a free for all. I have seen it all, from people taking and hiding stuff on their "competitiors" to people parking in the middle of the road to taking all the...

I realize you are trying to do your "homework", but I honestly think you need to do this on your own. First, go to the local feed store where you are going to purchase feed and ask them what the feed cost - it varies greatly on brand, location, etc. Then, go to where you are going to board...

There is a tropical island in Iowa I would sell you too!!

I guess this isn't as important as I thought.. :( Thanks for bumping it Torch. Glad to know someone agrees that this is indeed something to honor.

Hey stickman, what is the sale "outside of Muscatine" are you refering to?  I am only aware of one.

At a national show.... saw an exhibitor throw the ribbon down, throw the show stick and stomp out of the ring before being released because his bull didn't win.  Not sure if that is crazy or pathetic. Also have seen many things that would explain some of the bull names after cattle are at tie...

Too late... it wouldn't come up. Can you summarize?

Like others have said, sooo many variables... of which who's doing flushing, who's doing the implanting, donor nutrition, recep nutrition, weather, genetics (some cows/bulls work better than others), etc. I have had great flushes result in 0 pregnancies (0 for 32 from 3 flushes) and I have had...

Just wanted to say "I wanna be "just average"" like Sal Giunta, an Iowa soldier who is being awarded the Medal of Honor. The first since the Vietnam War. What a remarkable young man. He represents everything our country NEEDS to be.  Yep, I aspire be "average"  like him.  (If you don't...

I use a mixture of mane and tail conditioner and baby oil. Mix about 1/3 mane and tail and 2/3 baby oil. Squirt on, and let set until dirt balls appear dry (15 min or so). Repeat. Repeat. Then take a skip tooth comb and scratch at them. Don't pull. Once you have all the loose stuff off, apply...

I will not be buying from anything with an obscene name. But of course, I also will not buy because of "owner/breeders" name. It's a personal choice.
