My favorite in college was a  professor at Iowa State that would say " That thing is good enough - he can walk, talk and play the piano'" another was a collage buddy that would look at a steer with a big butt and say " Look at poop chute on that one" 

Truly is a great family adventure. Just got back from a 1,200 mile road trip this weekend to pick up calves. Got to spent a bunch of great time with my kids. Had a great trip, they got to see where the calves came from, and meet the people who bred them. Sometimes I (we) forget the small things...

Was out in the pasture the other day and saw one of my favorite 1st calf heifers with 3 calves on her. Only one is her's.  WHAT A TEAM PLAYER!!

Live 15 miles from there. It is still active. Still draws quite a few people. Dyersville has been able to ride that horse for a long time. The city has done a good job of promotion. The Ghost Players have somewhat disbanded however which was sad to see.

I have been to quite a few. One thing I like to have is a nice fact sheet on the calves that I can make notes on. Not necesarily something glossy, or shiney that is hard to write on. Big things for me  - sire, dam's sire, birthdate, possible breed registration, and other intersting info like...

I have a mid 80's Keifer Steel Gooseneck Livestock Trailer It is in very good shape. Lights, and brakes work. Center divider gate, and rear slider. Tires are 50% plus, floor is solid. We pulled the trailer 2000 miles just last fall getting calves with no problems. It does have some rust where...

Not that I don't have enough problems ---- I have a new one. We bought a heifer this fall from a club calf sale in SD, and brought her home to Iowa. Our intentions were to show her as a breeding heifer at a July County Fair. I went out to feed them this morning, and there was a small (estimated...

I have a steer that as time progresses, he has begun to walk stiff and straight legged. He weighs approx. 11-1,200 # now and will be shown at a county fair in July. I know it is a structure thing, but is there anything I can do to help. Also have a steer that is 'over in his knee' - any...
