My sister is running for county clerk & I just put together a website for her.  She just went public with it this morning, but before too many view it, I wanted to get some critical feedback, whether good or bad.  She's attempting to come up with some more pics to use as possible replacements or...

Despite all the cold, damp, snowy weather, I'm doing great so far.  I've only had 7 calves so far this year, all born outside in the open pasture, but have had no troubles at all.  Hopefully that will continue.  I'm very thankful & I hope that everyone else has a trouble free calving season or...

Jerry would be really good, with a wide variety of experiences, but like you, I'm not sure how much he's into the internet... I think that he lets his partners handle all the online stuff, but I may be wrong.  On the other hand, Kit is into the internet & he would probably jump all over the...

That is a pretty interesting list that would certainly make for some interesting chats... especially if the 2 Lowline breeders on that list got picked.   ;)

Has nothing to do with Dover & maybe not what you are looking for, but I'm pretty impressed with the Lakeside Shorthorn bulls on their website for moderate, beefy type Shorthorns.  Might be worth checking them out, if you already haven't.  I found out that a couple of breeders 2 counties over...

Open Bar is a bull that caught my eye a few years ago.  Depending upon what a person is wanting to do, he certainly appears to be one of the better bulls out there. 

Yes, that is a very nice looking bull.  (thumbsup)

I said that I would give a report if I ever sold any more Lowline steers at a sale barn... FWIW, last week, I let my dad sell 3 Lowline sired steers at a local sale barn.  The sale facility is about 1.25 - 1.5 hours away & they had a big run.  The 3 calves averaged right around 8 months of...

Natural exposure or AI bred?    (lol)

IMHO... The show stick/broom is better to break them when starting from scratch.  The water spray is better to break a kicker that's already been worked with.  A pressure washer is great, if you use the right nozzle & the right amount of pressure.  Some pressure washer/nozzle combos are going...

Lots of good advice & I will add my 2 cents... Get the calf to trust you & don't ever let a calf get it's bluff in on you...  cattle can tell when you are scared of them & they can play off it.  There are way too many tricks, methods & things that you can do to protect yourself while...

IDK, but that top pic looks exactly like the picture on the Calf Quest website.  

Well, she got smoked!  8th in my class.  I didn't see her at all after the NAILE & I wasn't at Denver, so I am not exactly sure why the judge didn't like her.  I just know how she placed.  She beat 2 fullblood heifers (MCR Findon's Montana Queen & MCR Sexy Pants) in her class at the NAILE that...

Might be.  ;)

If U get some let me know.  I am looking for some sexed semen & I'd really rather not use something with an EZ prefix in it's 3 generation pedigree, which eliminates Lexus.  I talked somebody else into sexing their bull, but his semen was just barely not quite good enough to sex.  I also wanted...

Backing up what Lazy G posted... I've only sold 1 halfblood Lowline steer at a sale barn, but anytime you gross almost $750 on a calf that only ate soy hulls for 45-60 days (the only other feed was pasture, hay, mineral, salt, & milk), was under a year of age, was born unassisted out of a 1st...

R U going to sex any of his semen? 

I missed this post, but, yes, I live pretty close to Slaughters.
