    Heads up Red Angus breeders

    I don't think the catalog won't be up on line for a few days. I will post a link when it becomes available. RCR

    I figured as much after you corrected me on your geological location. RCR

    Purebred Red Angus cows

    Sorry for the confusion, when i saw the black cow pictured I assumed you were north of the border, they run the reds and blacks all in the same herd book up there. RCR

    Nice bunch of old girls, although one of them is a little dark for those of us south of the border. RCR

    Flush ???

    If done properly and at the right time (when the cow is ready) one is sufficient. There's a grizzled old Cowboy lurking on here somewhere that has done a couple of flushes in the last 40 years that has always got it done with one straw for me. RCR

    How do you select your A.I. sires?

    I have a little advantage over alot of people as I see literally thousands of red angus cattle a year in both the U. S. and Canada. I see sire groups from many various opporations and many different genetic combinations. I also see most of the bulls that are promoted during their show carreers...

    Should sale catalogs still be mailed out?

    As a sale managment business I can tell you that while there are some who do use the online catalogs effectively, many do not. We try to have our hard copy mailed directly from the printers 4 to 6 weeks prior to the sale. Depending on the sale we may mail out from 750 to 3000+ catalogs, yes the...

    The Ultimate Feed Lot Steer

    I recentlyu saw a pen of 1/2 Red Angus 1/2 Fleckvieh Simmentals. They were an exceptional looking set of cattle that appeared to be very easy feeding. I don't know how they will grade when they hit the rail but they sure looked the part. RCR

    Black/red carrier angus cows

    Absolutely! That is where the breed originated from. You can register a red calf out of a black cow in the U.S. but you cannot register a black calf out of a red cow in the AAA. RCR

    Black/red carrier angus cows

    The Canadians run both red and black in one herd book so the color of the offspring doesn't matter. RCR

    Aluminum Livestock Trailers...Opinions Please

    I bought a Wilson in 2002. The only thing I have ever done to it is put tires and breaks on it. With somewhere near 100,000 road miles and who knows how many ranch miles on it, I don't think that is too bad. RCR

If I can assist you in an impartial appraisal of an animal or an absentee...

    Cattle Marketing

    I understand exactly what you are saying. I think some people use those "attachments" as an insurance policy. Here is what I reccomend to customers that want to sell possession on a female but retain a flush interest. Sell only 1/2 flush interest in the female, no possession but give the buyer...

    Cattle Marketing

    The nature of the business I'm in involves me in quite a few retained interest arrangements. One thing that I insist on is that the terms be friendly to the BUYER. Example = Selling a 1/2 flush interest in Y2703, guarentee of (pick a number) embryos to the buyer. Seller retains possession and...
