    Info on a couple bulls

    We bought a semen tank and it had some semen already in it.  Curious to what people's opinions are of these bulls: Foreplay:  Know he's a little older, would he still work today, and if so on what type of cow.  Is he heifer safe? Smooth Criminal:  Shorthorn, interested what he would work on?

    KC Steer Show

    When are Morrow's going to quit showing and start trading steers?  Bonham's a couple years ago started with them, as did Kroupa's this year.  They've either got a lot of money to spend, or a hell of an eye for cattle, most likely both.

    Stopping Frame Size Growth

    I have seen talk on here before about "Burning One Out" and am curious if it actually works, and if so, what is the best way to go about it.  From what I remember in the past, it's basically feeding a finisher ration, or high fat, from the time they're younger, to build fat rather than frame. ...

    Trailer wiring

    Sorry, not one wire coming out the back of the controller, one wire coming out the back of the pickup.

    Trailer wiring

    I appreciate the website, I do think that may help.  I don't think it's the controller as it is working if I squeeze it.  There is one wire coming out the back that gets hot if I push the brake pedal, and also lights up the trailer controller, but if this wire is connected to the plug in it...

    Trailer wiring

    I am having trouble with the wiring on my pickup.  I have blinkers and clearance lights, as well as electric brakes, but no brake lights.  I only have trailer brakes if I squeeze the brake control module, not by hitting the brake pedal.  I also checked the fuses and they are all ok, as well as...

    Young Money daughters?

    Is there a list somewhere of the bulls that are for sale?  I saw the post about them selling, but don't want to waste someone's time calling them if they don't have a bull I'm interested in.

    Pour-On Dewormer's burning backs

    How well do the drenches/injectables work on lice?  That seems to be one of our bigger problems, at least visually.  We usually end up pouring a couple times a year, as well as using an injectable.  We do try to rotate different MOA's, but being involved on the agronomy side and seeing the...

    Gabe Brown, Neil Dennis

    I have heard Gabe talk multiple times, and visited one on one with him on several occasions.  He has some very good ideas, and some that are a little off the wall.  The biggest drawback most operators face is the lack of time, or inability to make time to do the high management it takes to make...

    Structure problems with bojo genetics

    We had this problem with one calf this year, not a Bojo, but clubby breeding.  Talked to our vet about it, and he said it could be a couple things:  Calf came early and wasn't fully developed, for whatever reason, may have come on due date and still not have been quite developed; pull or...

    Lowest US cow/heifer inventory since 1941.

    I would guess most have been killed by sulfur toxicity or the phantom Polio "Virus"

    Chances of a Blue Roan out of Choppin Wood

    We had a PB shorthorn bred to what I thought was Choppin Wood.  You can imagine my surprise when she calved a blue roan heifer.  I thought right away that we pulled a wrong straw, however, I am wondering, with the way the smoke gene works, could it have come from Choppin Wood?  I may be wrong...

    You may have already, but I would check the junk folder on your email.  That's where my username/password request usually go.

    County Show = Popularity Contest

    If you want things to change, get out and change them.  Don't think your kid got enough money?  You could have bought his steer.  We're all busy, so the time excuse is a joke. Look at it from the buyers perspective:  We used to go to our local sale and buy a few animals.  We always supported the...
