    Showbed bedding vs. Cedar fiber

    Those with cool rooms, have you used the showbed bedding( http://www.flextraninc.com/showbed.html) in your cooler and how was it? Was it good bedding and how does it compare to cedar fiber or sawdust?

    Sim Influence bull to be used on commercial angus cows for maternal clubby momma

    Even though they are new, I like GCC Whizard, Kroupa's Simple Math, and Backlash. If I had more cows I would use them.

    Generator Size-4 blowers

    Thanks feed guy, i might have to pick your brain sometime on how to split the big plugs down to do that. Nothing I hate more than having to fight to have electricity on show day.

    Online Auctions?

    We liked the bidding on a few last fall that we decided to have our own this fall. While it is fast enough to get the bidding done in a short time frame, it is not as fast as an auctioneer where you don't even have time to think when bidding.

    Home feed mixing

    I would like to do a ton (2000) pounds at a time. Would do less if possible. We have a bunch of barley we can use but the local mill does not have room for it/doesn't want it there.

    Home feed mixing

    Who makes a good feed mixer for making your own show feeds? I am looking to take our own grains and order in rumensin, fats, and other things. I am just looking to make the feeding of our own show cattle and possibly our show cattle customers feed.

    Premier vs Oster

    I love my sheephead and flathead premiers. For show cattle for sure I like them both from premier. I think osters have more power for slick shearing but I could be wrong. The smaller size around and length makes them easier to use.

    HAIR LOSS

    I would say you need to have your calf in 90 days before your big show/shows. One thing I always think of is that hair only lasts so long before they have to shed out. I am pretty sure that even if you had a calf in a cooler all winter through summer that after 5 or 6 months they would shed. I...

    Aluminum Fan Cage/Breeder Display

    Are these strong enough for regular use? Has anyone used them? I haven't seen many out probably because they are quite expensive but looking to make an investment for a long time. Does it turn Charolais cattle grey like aluminum trailers do? ???

    Somebody needs to invent a calving alert system

    I have been wondering the same thing. I don't know if a cow behaves different in eating or if her weight fluctuates where a growsafe scale deal would pick it up. Or if a little sensor would just monitor body movement and when you would get a series of movements indicating labor that an alarm...

    Who 2 Opinions

    then why is Heat Wave Original at $250 and Heat Wave 1 at $125 and all of the other clones costing $30? Because some people believe that the Original and 1 are better than the others. They probably sell out on the original and 1 at lower costs and since it is a busines they raise prices. Some...

    ace of diamond & sull sinister

    Just to warn you if you don't already know, a shorthorn x simmental cross can throw some really funky(in a bad way) color patterns. We leased a shorthorn bull a couple of years ago and when he got a cow with simmental it was not pretty. They might be good cattle, but the color patterns were...
