    Durhams for Denver

    Again, not to stir the pot, but since Scott has been in hiding since the two whippings his football team took and evidently is not here to defend himself, that "black, blazed faced Simmental bull in your avatar" has sure as hell sired more than his fair share of 850 pound bull calves at 205...

    Clipping/blending Necks & Front Ends

    What David said. I can't ever seem to get one that will stand still enough when clipping their neck. This is the easy way to do it.

    Simmental coat patterns

    There is nothing inaccurate about the dates of the bulls you mentioned. Black Max was not big by the way. Neither was X.  However at their times, they were simply bulls that happened to be black. To call them "influential" would be a gross overstatement. Anyone who used them were considered to...

    Simmental coat patterns

    I would have to differ with you concerning the CAB premiums not being at issue in the FOCUS 2000 meetings. There is actually no premium to the producer, only the discounts you mentioned that we wanted to get away from. The premiums are in the wholesale of meat. The producer sees no premium, only...

    Thoughts on 3/4 simmi bull

    The bull looks fine, but I think you should have second thoughts on using that logo to advertise him. Its a registered trademark and I dont think they take someone else using it lightly.

    I have a hard time believing that you would doubt any sales figures were not perfectly accurate when it comes to Hartman.  ;D

    Simmental coat patterns

    All of those are Fleckvieh strain of Simmentals and red and white, some have dilution but most of that has been selected against. And one of those or a cross with one of those will never win at a junior national. However, there is a division at Louisville for them and the Sweepstakes might have...

    If you lived in the US you would understand that marketing does not necessarily have anything to do with facts  :)

    Simmental coat patterns

    I have raised Registered Simmental cattle since 1979. I bought the first 3 with money from my student loan. The CAB program began in 1978. However it was almost discontinued several times because it didn't get the results they had hoped for. A man named Mick Colvin wouldn't let the idea go...

    Knabe I would submit that the fiscal issues are a result of social issues.

    US Farm Bill

    I had read about the $7-$8 a gallon milk prices several other places. If there was no new farm bill the price support for milk would go back to being based on a formula used in 1949 and not adjusted for anything since then. The agriculture subsidy most likely to have a large negative impact on...

    Three Thing to Ponder, Cows, The Constitution, The Ten Commandments

    Who are you that he would have to justify what he said to YOU? Are you the new steer planet moral compass?  The idiot would be an apologist for the illegals like you are. That's who the real idiot is, someone who's world is so small that they can't see the problems and expense to the country...

    Show Heifer Ration

    If you have to "give and take" and the "give" has to be bulk, might as well just feed 'em half corn, half oats and some SBM and forget it. Lots of people do that, too.

    Show Heifer Ration

    Your welcomed to get anyone's take on it you want. Cotton seed hulls ad fiber, but the reason they are in the ration over other sources of fiber are bulk. A mill started using pelleted hulls here for the same reasons that were mentioned in the original post and it just killed the effectiveness...

    Show Heifer Ration

    Many of the new commercial show feeds don't have hulls in them at all. They tout being able to get more gain out of less feed and therefor justify their high price. However, when feeding a heifer I am not after gain as my main goal. I am after a "look. If you use cotton seed hull pellets you...
