    Full Blood Maine Weekly Update

    She is a coca cola cow and I have never seen calves out of a Fullblood one. I am trying to determine if I want to put in the embryos I have by coke. I am concerned how course they will be if I got a heifer.

    Gary really likes the calves he has had by him. I don't think he has collected him but will ask.

    Pick of the 2014 Display Bulls

    I thought Rodgers black bull had a lot of future because of his length combined with a little grow. He was smooth with good wool hair

    BISS ELEMENT 79 370Z National Champion Shorthorn at Denver

    I saw him in the stall across from the folks my friend was helping. He was big middled and wide topped. I thought he could be better fronted especially on the move and have more rear muscle. All in all though he was a good bull.

    Danigo looks just like I remember him at Houston after this picture was made at western breeders but imagine him thicker and more mature. Sure am glad I still have dads semen from when we owned him.

    Thanks telos my footnote on the prospector embryos got butchered into hyrogliphics in the catalog i also think Yukon would work on shorthorn cows to get good correct 7/8 females to come back on with a good traditional bull as well as on the clubby black cows in the breed the darco bull was sent...

    I read this and my interpretation is that while there is not enough production of Maine beef to Influence large distributors in France small distributors and butchers can establish a very profitable niche by selling a superior product. This coincides with what I found when we butchered and...

    Undercover 806 Turbo...

    even though the pictures look great and the bulls are correct and sound, i wonder about performance. it was obvious to me from watching the royal and naile online with confirmation from a person at both shows that this bull who won both shows was smaller than younger bulls in the drives. i had 2...

    Just Arrived! My Daughter's new steer! It is her first.

    going to a prospect show every week slows gain and won't win fat shows in the fall. you have to be smart and go to just enough to get your daughter and the steer used to each other and everything else that goes on. tall cool is right on to prospect the heavier steer.

    Just Arrived! My Daughter's new steer! It is her first.

    Just Arrived! My Daughter's new steer! It is her first.

    i would start him on 10 to 12 lb of finisher a day split into 2 feedings and 5 to 6 lb of grass hay at night probably 1 good flake. no extra protein. then increase his finisher as fast as you can maybe a lb a week if he won't scour until he is eating 25 lb a day and stay there leaving hay the...

    up to 150,000 dead cattle in South Dakota

    xpert is wrong as usual. bonus depreciation can throw you into a deductable loss situation on any return and create an nol (sec 179 is limited to offsetting earned income including w2 wages so a taxpayer could have negative taxable income and a nol if his cpa knows the law and has a sharp pencil...

    up to 150,000 dead cattle in South Dakota

    xpert is right that principle is not deductable, but you have been able to write off land improvements under bonus depreciation in recent years. these improvements were depreciable over 15 to 20 years before but the bonus depreciation rules have allowed all or half of them to be written off in...
