I would bet there are several of my neighbors that would pay money to see that!!!  Maybe we could do a 4-H fundraiser and sell tickets!!!!  If I thought there was any chance it would work I would try it, certainly a lot cheaper than buying parts with green paint on them.

The oil level is ok.  All functions are slow and smooth.  I was thinking it was a problem with the pipes that conect the charge pump in the transmission to the main pump as we have had promlems with them before, but the hydraulics usually chatter when that happens.  I was not aware there was a...

I have a 1979 or 1980 2140 John Deere tractor that has a hydraulic problem.  It was working fine when I shut it daown but when I started it up a couple days later the hydraulics were very slow and had no power.  I changed the filter and it inproved slightly but is still very slow.  Does anyone...

These pictures do not do justice to that calf!!!  She is a fantastic heifer and will only get better as she grows.  Glad to hear Winegum is doing well. <party>

Yesterday we had the opportunity to inspect some great cattle in southern Saskatchewan and most of all meet some great people!!  We got a tour of JIT's herd first and a very nice visit with Grant and Chris, then went down the road to the Hilltop herd for another tour and visit.  The family and I...

I agree with what has been said, make sure the name can not be considered offensive in any way. As well make sure it is catchy enough for people to remember it.  If you are selling any kind of show catle or breeding stock this can give you an advantage over other people.  We live in Elm Creek,MB...

I know everyone has at least one cow in the herd that they hope the nieghbors never see but always has a fantastic calf.  Let's have some fun and post some pictures of them.  This is the ugliest cow I have ever owned and her bull calf sired by Shadybrook Scotty.

That is exactly what it is all about!!  We can all hope our own kids learn these lessons!!

Here is my 6 year old with Hatfeild Baroness Legend 5X.  She is a ACC Legend 1U daughter out of a Semiahmoo Regis cow.  She didn't win any ribbons but had a great time and learned a lot.

Here is a picture of my 8 year old daughter with Hatfeild Butterfly Legend 21X, the reserve cahmpion heifer from the 4-H show in Carman,MB.  She is so proud you'd think she had won Agribition!!!!

I can see a road trip coming later this summe, when it is time to find a steer (clapping)

The last few years I tried to give an example of how to start early and do everything well, this year I will be the example of how not to get cattle ready!!!!

Thanks OH Breeder, we have finally got them on some dry ground, last week they were up to their bellies in mud.  We are working hard now to have them ready for July 7th.  As you can see the showgirls are pretty little so the main focus is making sure they will not explode no matter what happens...

Those are some LOVELY LADIES!!!! (clapping)

These steers are both sired by Shadybrook Scotty, the black is out of a commercial angus cow and the tan os out of a charolais/ angus cow.  Both born in April 2010.  They currently weigh between 1000 and 1100 lbs.

I had no trouble tonight, but I have problems depending on how fast my connection is.

Here are a couple pics of my girls getting the steers ready to go to the fair.  We are way behind as it has been so wet we can't work with the animals but they are coming along now.

I sure wish we cold drain some of the water from Manitoba and Saskatchewan to help out in Alberta.  I agree with JIT that as bad as it is, everything we own is still there it just needs to dry out.  The folks in Alberta have lost everything with no warning.

Southern Manitoba is bad and getting worse.  The municipality where I live has been fighting water for over a week now and the levels are going up instead of down.  There are over 45 roads washed out in an area 12 x 24 miles.

I would have a bigger smile if that was my steer!!  He looks good!! (clapping)
