We feed a lot of wet beet pulp to our heifers helps give them a fuller look and can help add depth. We also feed Purina Depth Charge.

We add peanut oil just a splash in each ones pan.

We have a Tiger Woods steer this year and he looked great as a calf up to about 800lbs. Its been downhill since. Eats great but doesn't convert it to body weight . Also lacks a lot of depth. That said its just one calf so I can't say its true of all TW calves just ours. Not sure he would make my...

We didn't give them anything. Just knew what their cycle was and had been keeping track since the first of the year so we knew when to watch for them to come in. We bred 12 hours after the first sign of activity on both heifers. As far as body condition the older heifer would be a 6 the the...

Ok this may be a dumb question but here goes. We have 2 heifers we bred in mid April no signs of heat in either one and the last one we bred was supposed to come in for the second time yesterday. Before we bred her she was like clockwork , every 19 days for over a 3 month period . The other was...

i actually talked to a nutritionists from Purina and he told me it does expand in the gut and help add depth and may result in less feed intake at first. But, as you use it routinely it actually increases feed intake because it has stretched out the stomach and allows for more room for feed.So i...

We have a Purina dealer within a mile of hour house and Umbargers is made within 15 miles of home. We feed Umbarger and love it. One, they have a product for phase of the show cattle process from starter to finisher and everything between. Two, its so close to home that we never have to worry...

Here it is

Thanks everyone for the help. I actually happened to find a local sign shop and stopped in and they were glad to help me out. Told them what we wanted and they came up with some options for us to look at and then made our final decision .Should be done Wednesday

We use a blocking blade and just slick em down

You could try try the weaver shedding comb and work the daylights out of him with it but we just slick em down around mid March and start over again . Unless you have a show coming up in the near future and are wanting to try to keep some hair for that. Otherwise shear them.

We have herefords and the best way we have found is to use a rice root brush when you finish rinsing and brush it straight down then comb it at a 45 angle down then forward. Its the best way we have found to get rid of the wave and curls

We are wanting to get a custom farm sign made to display when we go to shows we have a pretty good idea of what we want and I have tried to find someplace on the internet to design my own sign but am having trouble finding someplace where I can design it without having to buy some special...

If you aren't planning on moving them for a long time, we like the Schaefer 36" barn fans. They move a lot of air and seem to hold up really well. We have 4 of them and have had them for about 10 years and run them all almost every day from daylight to dark. Never had a problem with them...

Here is my March 20,2012 Hereford heifer she is out of DAD TFF Winchester (Durango son) . What do you guys think of her? We are pretty happy with how well she has turned out just curious what other people think of her. Thanks in advance.

Here is a picture of the heifer it was taken back in January . We weighed her 2 weeks ago and she weighed 1050

Has anyone seen this bull or calves out of him? I am considering using him on my sons heifer she is out of a Durango son and we are wanting to get some good heifers out of her . What is your opinion of him?

I have him penned with our heifer but separate them to feed them otherwise she would eat everything . They are fed in stalls next to each other so they can see each other when they eat. I have thought about cooking some shelled corn and adding that to his feee will that help?

We feed a ration mixed at our local mill it is a 12% protein. To that we add appetite express and peanut oil. He was wormed a month ago with Safegaurd paste. He has a good appetite and cleans his feed up. I don't know maybe he is just a poor doer ? After talking to several people and hearing...

2 weeks ago he weighed 900 needs to finish about 1300 at the end of July but at this rate he will never make it
