What past year was your Deadliest Catch steer? I'd love to see a pic of him

sent you a pm

Totally, completely, 100% what David said. It should not matter if the animal is "ran up." If the seller priced the animal in the pasture at a certain price or he requires a certain price at auction, what does it matter. If you want it and can afford it buy it. Don't have bad feelings at the...

In most cases single parents with custody of their children deserve a Presidential medal anyway. But when you ad to that any activity that takes the time, effort and money that showing cattle does, they deserve a parade as well. I am sure there are many cases where the parents cooperate and get...

When I originally posed the question, I really didn't think it would begin a debate on the merits of Round Up ready corn. What I REALLY wanted to know was what people knew about the LAW that has just been put in place that protects a company, in this case a specific company against a court...

I think the best two include The Irishman and one that is often over looked which is Griswold's Patton. Hard Whiskey maybe the best one?

Anyone hear or know anything about the "Monsanto Protection Act?"  Anyone been reading bad things about GMO crops like Round Up ready corn? http://www.responsibletechnology.org

Justin..................I am really busy and I don't have time for a history lesson. Second I never saw the original post, so PLEASE just say " I have no idea what I was thinking when I compared segregation to religion in schools." What is appalling to me is that so many good people, like you...

I'm not sure, but I take it that the alleles coding for red and black are separate genes entirely than the dilution gene? meaning it would be possible to have combination of red or black and then separately one or two copies of the dilution gene? Yes, dilution and color completely separate...

AJ what is contrary to your beliefs about raising cattle that other people want to buy as far as cattle breeding goes?

HANNIBAL! That's a good one I never thought of. This guy is smarter than he looks Harvey.

Thank goodness for that........... AJ do you think you could round up 100 from your place and gross what these will?

It's ok, little buddy. You don't have to understand it. All you gotta do is believe it. If you don't know that Monopoly and Walks Alone are more consistent than Heat Wave, it's just because you haven't been looking. Not because you're stupid.

^^^^^^ This. I am certainly no shorthorn expert, but I don't think you are going to get belly draggers consistently with that group you named. I think you'll be very disappointed in most and maybe happy with one if these are what you decide to use. Of course we haven't seen your cow, only have...

Heatwave might not be a bad choice. But I think there are sons that are much more consistent in the pattern they produce. I would also say that you are not diluting anything when you instead ad better more consistent genes through the outstanding dams of a few of these Heatwave sons. But I am...

What ever Justin tells you can take it to the bank. He's the best fitter I have ever had, that's for sure!

I think she is looking in an old Cattle Visions catalog. I don't know what on line she means. But the -.1 is from the EPD that compared only Simmi sires and the new "across breeds, I had to come up with something new to justify my employment" EPD's indicate a plus .71. I can't believe she didn't...

Like most have expressed, I have no problem with people spending what ever they want on what ever they want to spend it on. The golden rule is a tough one to swallow, but its true that those with the gold make the rules. For me, the part about it not being about the kids anymore is when these...

There won't be a next time. You wing it on your own. After all, you've been showing for 2 whole years. I think you should pretty much know it all by now.

Well.........first if its going to be a 4 way cross calf, it's gonna be a mongrel. You say tomoto, I say tomato, What ever.............Perhaps you have a different definition. Second if you have a cow that is already 80% Angus, you are not going to "stouten up my cow and i want something that...
