    Ampule of Cunia

    Seriously Telos? If you would like to shoot me a pm I can give you a handful of names and numbers of guys that are sitting on decent banks that would part with a few amps.

    Ampule of Cunia

    I am going to assume that was an inside joke between you two and not waste my time pointing out the idiocy in your statement. There must still be a bit of Cunia around, as you can generally snag it in the 200-300 range pretty consistently.

    BB RND #3 Meyer 734 (100) over Black Max (8)

    im sure this will be a blowout, but i maintain I would rather have Black Max cows than 734 cows every time

    Entourage

    Mike Hibma will tell you that Entourage breeds different than JTG. Bit more frame, bit more stretch, heifers better than steers. I have a handful of both and I am impressed across the board. Both are being used again.

    Simmental nominations for the bull bracket

    Since 734 won the last one, coming up with bulls to complete the bracket is akin to making out the Harlem Globetrotters schedule. However I would rather have a cane of Black Max in my tank than 734.

    Just when I thought I had seen everything.... kinda cattle related

    My eyes are burning and I swear I can smell ammonia from reading that. We had an old lady like that near us that lived in a trailer just like you described on the farmstead she grew up on. You could see the remains of the once majestic dwelling that would have signified a family of means a...

    Dr. Jan Bonsma

    My dad attended a speaking engagement and was impressed. As was told to me, Dr Bonsma could tell certain things such as fertility and reproductive history of a cow based on the color of the hair on her spine, sexing unborn calves by the cows tailswitch, guaging temperment by whorl placement on...

    Accusations of cheating at fairs

    I dont care if it is Louisville or a remote county fair with 6 head, it is almost a given that there will be drama of some sort from rumors and accusations. Rarely in offical form, mind you, but the beer tent jury couldnt enjoy the fair without it. It ammuses me to witness, and few things bring...

    Salute

    Has anyone seen a really good salute out of a mediocre cow? There have been some good ones, but for as heavily used as he was you would have thought there would be alot more. I flushed an old Stinger cow to him before I knew she was PHA neg and I should have calves in October. And I couldnt care...

    Walker 2 year old----OPINIONS WANTED

    Walker was a 734 Windsor son that was around before 734 really took off, but he was a good one. I have a two year old out of him that is a future donor.

    False Test Results

    I am not questioning the technology. Fact is mistakes happen. People are people and there is no changing that, but even the most mundane detail can have a butterfly effect with substantial result. My questioning the test is questioning the process and dilligence to limit error. I neve...

    False Test Results

    JIT thank you for pointing out that broad statements have exceptions. I should have said Non Canadians. Fact is I stick by what I said. I doubt there are 20 shorthorn herds in the midwest with over a hundred cows. It is a breed made up of small producers, many who have other breeds. ALMOST...

    False Test Results

    Show heifer it was one animal tested. People that actually own cattle rarely run entire herds through the chute to pull blood. How the sample was handled isnt the issue. Varying test results is the issue.

    Cunia 602 = not a cunia, papers pulled

    I know a guy who ordered semen direct from the owner, used it, got a call from the owner saying he screwed up and that instead of BULL, he sent him son of BULL, that was labeled BULL 123. Bull 123 will never have the problem of mistaken identity. His calves suck.  Prominent bull promoter from...

    Steroid use and implants

    Chambero you made me laugh out loud! You are so right! I am in Iowa and I am putting CIDRs in cows for may calves  the southern boys are going to call fall borns! Couple things my daddy taught me... "Those that talk, dont know. Those that know, dont talk." "people that brag are full of it...

    TM Gus...shorthorn people what do you think?

    Steroid use and implants

    If you arent using Revlor in a slick show, you aint trying. Clembuterol was (is) an equine asthmatic medication that had a weird effect on animals, in that it turned Angelina Jolie into Jennifer Lopez. Tiny little complication was that if the animal was slaughtered with the compound still in...

    Cunia 602 = not a cunia, papers pulled

    I'm telling ya, Kroupa wouldnt do something that dumb. That would be like Pablo Escobar going down for a parking ticket.
