Hot shots have their place.  It's like with anything else you have to know when to use and when not to.  Agressive or nervous animals will only be made worse if a hot shot is used.  However some cows that you push and push on, twist their tail and they still won't go (calm stubborn animals), a...

Abortion.  There's plenty of demand for it because we as Americans in general do support the practice (abortion) as a remedy for what our society views as a problem (pregnancy).  We support the demand by enacting legislation that is pro abortion (pro choice).  We support the demand by...

Things are saturated here, small rivers have been out since last night (5.8 inches in the past 24 and it was wet before).  The Mississippi is getting pretty high as well and with more rain in the forecast.  It seems like just a couple months ago there wasn't enough water in the Miss.  for barges...

By the time the calf has gotten up and nursed, and dried off.  I want to be able to walk up to the cow, tag and cut the calf if need be without her rubbing or running over me.  I have a group of cows that will let me do this (part of them are shorthorns, some are angus).  These same cows will...

Price would be the same for low choice and high choice.  Mill Iron A - Did you have these animals fed out some place?  I wonder what they were feeding and what age were they at harvest?  A yg 1 select weighing at 1005 lbs  is interesting to me.  So was the calf not finished or just leaner...

Are you talking about number of individual animal records recorded or data that is available on each animal?

EXT was by no means a big animal.  So if your animals were giant it was not coming from him.  He's just below breed average for mature height and basically breed average for mature weight.   His epd's are probably more accurate than any other animal (anywhere).   His progeny's docility sucks (no...

Good Point!

Why does one need 15 rounds to hunt?  5 should be plenty (IMO).

Farm call is $40, preg checks 3.90 per head.  Ultrasound was a little higher but can't remember how much.

We have a 4450 powershift with 10,500 hours on it.  We bought it new in 83? , it has been an excellent tractor for us.  The dealer turned it up to 160 hp not long after we got it.  Never been overhauled, I like the powershift better than the quad range on the 50 series, on the 30 and 40 series...

Trevorgrey - has a point, what kind of cows are they?  What are their strong points and their weaknesses in relation to the desired carcass results of their calves?  How are the calves going to be raised?  (creep feed, grass, grain, both, etc.).  Just looking at data that is available, I...

27 months before they are finished, run with their mothers for 16 months?  Holy Cow!  It better be some awesome tasting beef.  Maybe it is?

Here in Northeast Missouri we are much better than we were a year ago at this time.  This winter has been colder than last in general, and we've had more precip.  Just got 2.5 inches of rain. :)  The east half of the country looks to be recovering nicely from drought, the west half doesn't look...

What angus bull did you use as fool proof?

There are many different types of commercial cattle operations.  There has to be with all the different environments.  Commercial in western Kansas might not be the same type of herd that is in Northeast Missouri, Florida, Texas, Canada, etc.  Environment and available feed stuffs (grass, grain...
