Monopoly by a Sull Cow.

Good to know flyers worked. We had 90 head last year which we were happy with for a first year. We do have market heifers offered although we did not have any for the division last year. Look us up on facebook and like us for updates and we also have a blog.

Use a blower as much as possible. Once you get the hair dry going forward try blowing it up at a 45 or almost straight up. Combing it that way too will help also. Blowing them longer than just getting them dry really helps with getting the hair to stand up and pop. You could try using some...

Anyone use this product? I was looking to use it on a couple of heifers to help with body depth and really help them maintain condition the last two months before their big show.

I would agree that it isn't necessarily the cold that grows the hair it is a combination of things. I have only seen 100 degrees about twice in my life but have seen quite a bit of 90s this summer. I would consider raising the temperature above 60 if it is 90 plus outside. Do they have shade or...

We built a new cooler room last summer and added a couple things over our past cooler to help. We have a concrete floor that all slopes to a drain. We added a 1 inch layer of pea gravel/small rock on the bottom under neath about 3-4 inches of cedar fiber. When we rinse the heifers in the stall...

In my opinion, on average All Aboard does not quite make calves as stout or flashy as Monopolies. I find them to be a little plainer. He might have his place but I don't need him.

I have had trouble with sullivan's ultra white this last year where they would lose pressure and start to spit blobs instead of spray out fine. I was told to try switching to the red tip that comes on the black sullivan paint on the white can and that does help. How does Weaver's white compare...

Has anyone seen an AI24 system? It is promoted for dairy but I think with a little ingenuity it could be used in beef. Found it on Semex's webstie. http://semexusa.com/i?lang=en&page=ai24.shtml

I like putting some of the andis clipper oil (the heavy stuff that comes with the two speeds) on when I start clipping and use final bloom periodically while clipping to replenish the oil without getting too heavy. Like to use hocus pocus while clipping fit legs to get the adhesive off. 

I believe they are talking about Vigortone's ICE (Internal Cooling Elements). I believe it works a lot like Tasco. They push it primarily for dairy cows but I think that it does have some validity in show cattle or cows with high emphasis on AI or ET. http://vigortone.com/dairy/preg-saver.htm

What price does it cost and how do you compare it to full tank?

I know Stronghold has a carrier/trailer for gates. Heres the link to their website with the trailer pictured. http://strongholdmfg.com/fencing.html

Thanks everybody. Feel free to keep this post going.

If you want a sure thing smokey colored calf you will need to breed to a bull that is solid white charolais. The smokey bulls when bred to a black cow with throw smokey 50% of the time and black the other 50%. I would rather have a white cow and breed her to a crossbred to get a smokey for sure.

I was looking to get a better phone to do more internet, facebook,... compared to my flip phone. How do the smartphones do as far as cell phone reception and durability? I don't want to get one of these smartphones and find out I can't make a regular phone call with them. Thanks

XX888 is the bulls cane code. Makes me feel good when I look down in my semen tank and see some "XX888".
