    What do people think on the Paddy O Malley bull

    I have several calves out of Bubba O'Malley and his heifers are phenomenal!!!!  Deep bodied, structurely correct and good hair.  If you use him you won't be disappointed.  We have had heifers out of both Paddy and Bubba.  The Bubba puts a more feminine look into the calves then what Paddy does. ...

    Carrousel 8 Meyer

    We have had quite a few calves out of him.  We used him on all of our heifers for two years.  All the calves always hit the ground running and were small.  We had no calving problems.  I would say the averaged 60 lbs.  This year we dad a bull out of a Wazn't Me X Angus heifer that weighed 45...

    help - show heifer bloating daily

    I appreciate everyones input.  The heifer has been on free choice hay since November and is a very, very picky eater so it scares me to add new things to her feed, but if that is the best thing to do we will have to try it. Thanks again, if anyone else has any other options that have worked...

    help - show heifer bloating daily

    We have a really nice ali heifer that we are showing, but she keeps bloating so it is hard to keep her on a regular feeding schedule.  We just had a show this past weekend and she looked terrible because everytime we tried to feed her she started to bloat.  When she was in the ring she was all...

    I have a full brother to Paddy O' Malley who is clean. His name is Bubba O' Malley.  He is big boned and stout.  His first calves are on the ground and are better than what I was expecting. They have all come easy and are getting better by the day.  If you would like some more info like...

    STEERPLANET PRIVATE TREATY SALE?

    I think this is a wonderful idea.  I would be willing to help and participate.  I am in Michigan and am always looking for ways to market cattle.  I agree if we centrally located it in the midwest it would be a good idea.  If we could have the sale around or near one of the bigger places to draw...

    New Rifle

    Those are all good choices of rifle calibers.  I would suggest the .270 wsm. It is a flat shooting cartridge and when matched with a high quality scope can take down any animal with good shot placement.  It is also not overkill on the coyotes and other small game.  I think that is your best bet...

    I appreciate all the input.  I took the advice from everyone's input and put it to work today.  Our elevator currently has a show feed that is quite nice and comparable to the Showmaster type feeds.  We are feeding 12 show animals and we are feeding these with the bagged feed.  I made a phone...

    Show Feed Ration

    I need some help.  I have been jumping around trying to find an efficient show feed for my heifers.  I currently am using a really good show feed from our local elevator that is custom mixed and the calves are doing very well.  The downside is it is costing me a fortune.  The feed contains corn...
