    old shoe

    I have personally seen a sullivans heifer be beat by heifers that were probably a 1/4 the cost of this heifer.  Yeah they won some with her but I also saw a judge put her 4th in a class.  We must remeber that the judges pick the winners and one week you could win it all and the next you might...

    calf born with crooked tail

    I have a WHR Sonny cow that has a tail that has been messed up since birth.  I bought her for a pretty good deal because the other person thought he would not be able to get her sold for a supreme price at any sales or off the farm.  She has had 4 calves not and none have had the same tail...

    Vegas semen

    It will run you $50 a straw from Duis Farms.  If someone has some in a tank and thinks they won't use it you could get it cheaper.  But you would probably have to hunt it down and wait for someone to come up with some straws.  Search for Duis Farms and all their contact info is on the site.  I...

    Shorthorn breeding advice

    If your herd is small you really need to make sure you get a live calf.  A dead calf or a C section can hit you hard on the money end of things as well as hurt your moral about the business all together.  Everyone has different experiences with different bulls.  Some have good experiences and...

    Shorthorn breeding advice

    I have heard Ace Of Diamonds can throw 120 lb calves.  I have not used him yet but do have semen in my tank.  I would crossbreed on a shorthorn heifer to something like Rocky Balboa or Who Made Who if you want something clubby.  This spring I used Majors Money Man also on shorthorn heifers if...

    Cow limping close to calving

    We have a commercial cow that has started limping over the past 3 days.  She is close to calving but has not done so yet.  Got her in the chute this morning and got some milk out of her.  How soon to calving will cows start lactating?  I don't know if she has had trouble maybe already trying to...

    Friction and Chill Factor- any TH or PHA in them??

    Bought a really nice Friction X Chill Factor heifer and was wondering if Friction or Chill Factor are known carriers of either Th or PHA.  Checked cattle.com and didn't say anything about a carrier on either.  Are both clean or just so old they were not tested. Thanks

    Sunseeker on Shorthorn cows??? Ever seen any of this cross??

    <hero> Thanks for that link.  I have asked around and hear that Sunseeker can make good ones but the number of cripples are just the same.  I am a little uneasy on trying it since I only have about 10 purebreds and I would hate to waste a calf on a cripple.  I think the outcome could be awesome...

    Sunseeker on Shorthorn cows??? Ever seen any of this cross??

    Thinking of ordering some Sunseeker semen.  How would he work on moderate framed shorty cows out of Sincity, Sonny and Kaboom??  Ever seen a Sunsseeker shorthorn cross calf? How did it look?

    Getting Ready For Virginia State Fair

    Here is our heifer that we have pictured on here a couple times.  She will be a yearling on October 2 and the State Fair is on the 4th and 5th.  The first three pics are of her today  clipped but not fit.  I am unsure if fitting will be allowed so I always wait to clip legs and tailhead at the...
