    Hiring a fitter?

    We don't ususally pay for a fitter, we are on the "quid pro Quo" rationale.  Folks like road warrior and stumpy trade with us, works pretty good on a small budget.  When I used to be a "dirty knees" kinda guy, I would get $100.00 to $150.00 per day, that was in the late 80's early 90's.  Don't...

    JG RED CLOUD..........anyone know much about him?

    REd Cloud is owned by Good Family Shorthorns in Barnard Kansas.  He was used HEAVILY by them for years.  He probably bred 100 cows per year naturally, running on large parcels of pasture (sections), not 10 acre lots.  I have quite a few Red Cloud females and can tell you that they are honestly...

    Old School Fitting Supplies

    You should see our "show place".  Not much for looks.  Heck I still pull a steel trailer nicknamed trusty rusty.  As a friend of mine, the late Joe Woods said, spend your money on better genetics.

    I found an alien!

    If you would have drove around the corner, you could have stopped to look at some Red cows at our house.  We just dropped off some more stock at their house (1 cat).  Hopefully, the feline population doesn't explode at SD's due to alien surroundings.

    Flies

    What kind of flies do you have?  Where are the flies (in the barn, or on the cows in the pasture)?  If they are horn flies, you will be best served to feed a mineral with Altosid (Methoprene) in it.  Fly tags (mostly organophosphates) will decline in effectiveness over the summer and your flies...

    ATTN: Shorthorn Breeders

    Take a trip to western Nebraska and look at the Haumont herd (sp).  We toured their place a few years ago, and it was a very impressive, extremely inbred herd that, in my opinion, would work as a nucleus herd to start with.  You might be able to buy some heifers from her.  Those cattle had...

    Nice job Stacey and Jeff.  Gus looked 12 o'clock.  If you keep buying from trademark ranch, you might break his bank account with the amount of beverages he'll have to purchase.
