VitaFerm's Feed Barometer might help you out. It breaks the country into feed regions and then let's you know which feedstuffs are a good buy or overpriced based on their nutritional value. http://www.biozymeinc.com/feed_market/index.html Also, I agree that working with your feed store or...

Are you looking for a summer internship? Check out the two internships that Sure Champ is offering. One is more sales focused and the other is public relations focused. You'll have the opportunity to gain experience related to feed sales and livestock nutrition, while spending the summer...

I have no idea. That would be a question for the school or someone that has lived in Iowa longer than me!

Currently, our brand new junior/senior high is being built, and when the new school opens this fall we will have an ag/FFA program for the first time in 50 years. If you know of someone that would be interested in the position be sure to let them know soon, as the deadline is Feb 8. Lots of good...

I'll volunteer up our VitaFerm and Sure Champ nutritionists if you are interested. We work on rations for no charge all the time for our customers and potential customers. All you have to do is email [email protected], let them know what you are thinking and what age/type of livestock you are...

Yup, that is the bull. We have bought some cattle from Perks over the past two year and have been really happy. Wade and my husband went to college together and grew up doing the Hereford junior thing. We are stopping there on Monday to check out their bull pen. Still needing a walking calving...

Does anyone have any contact information for Plain Jane or maybe its Plain Jans?. I did some work with them in the past, but can't seem to track down contact info. Thanks!

Didn't know if anyone else had a chance to attend the Hereford sale in Denver but it was fantastic. Not only were the cattle great, and the prices outstanding, but the atmosphere was amazing. They had the sale in the Stadium showring (I was told that this is how they used to do it), and it was a...

You are right about the Fleckvieh changing color. My dad added this bull to our herdsire line up last year. I couldn't believe it when we he told me he was full fleck. We are using him on both our red and black purebred cows to get some outcross within the own breed...

Thanks for the info. I think we'll do a little shopping around, but Texas is a little too far from Iowa. The place we have used in the past Cross Country Genetics have sent us really good cows the past two years. There has only been one with a bad attitude and she'll still make us a pretty penny...

Just got done talking with the people that have been doing our embryo work for the past two years, and also talked with a potential new place to get recips from. Looks like the cost is going up. Was quoted $2050 from one place and $2200 from the other for pregnant recips.

We won't be showing anything, but we are taking two bulls and this Hereford heifer for the sale. I think it is always exciting to watch the shows since so many of the heifers we end up seeing at Junior Nationals in the summer. Interesting to watch how they change. Iowa Beef Expo Hereford Sale...

I'll be in the VitaFerm Sure Champ tent right on the edge of Herd Sire Alley. We'll have the heater going if we get some of that fun NWSS weather.

He looks good. Looking forward to seeing all the Canadian cattle that are coming down.

Went to the Buckhorn Exchange last year for the first time. Awesome food.

Check out www.cattle.com looks like there was nothing officially filed.

Love it! Nothing like getting a little practice in. Glad the girls will get good use out of them.

I won't be there, but my family High Country Cattle will be in the Simmental barn. I am sure my mom and dad would love to help out.

I just have to say I am pretty proud of my K-State Widlcats and Collin Klein. It has been an exciting season so far!

The equipment will be selling on Saturday at the end of the sale, and will be on LivestockAuctions.tv as well as RFD-TV if their air time hasn't run out.
