    To me it all depends on usage and how much you clip.

    Flushing Cow suggestions

    I know this is left field as to what you have had but limousin. Something like a duece, xyloid. Think on that cow you'd be looking at some killer lim-flex cattle.

    Advice for an Online sale

    Agreed BIM, have a hard time trusting pics and even videos because certain things that can be hidden by not filming certain parts can be edited out. But it's the society we live they would rather watch and see on line than meet people.

    Clippers

    I'd say If you clip a whole bunch and use them more than every once and a while 5-speeds are the way to go. I bought three sets and each have paid for themselves. If you're only going to use them once and a while is stay with the 2speed andis no reason to spend that much on them if they won't be...

    Neck issues?

    Have a steer that when being led with his head up jerks back towards his offside towards the halter and will not turn his head away from the person leading him. Could he have some nerve or vertebrae out of whack causing this?

    Cooler routines

    What's the best oral "Calf Calm"? And advice an a steer with an attitude.

    Calf calm has no real fast acting ingridients in it. I used it on a heifer one time and it didn't do anything just made her eat more in my opinion. Only real quick ways are ace or rompem which can be tested for. You can feed them melatonin ahead of time.
