AGREE! Love the sight!

Does the calf acting up not show that the show man didnt do the work at home?

I can see the side of asking kids questions. I don't agree with asking all of them nor do I agree with a judge asking you to switch animals.  But I do things others won't agree with either. That's the cool thing about cattle shows and agriculture in general, we can agree to disagree,  sit down...

We've done the same thing $1000 a head at weaning for a live calf

Huh sweet deal. I doubt I'll every need to use them but now I know how it works thanks. I 100% agree with "the quality of hair is more important then the amount." The goal is to have both, but I'd rather have quality then quantity.

The first time I heard about the implants for hair growth was only a couple weeks ago. I've never had a problem growing hair living this far north in canada where a really hot day to me and the cattle is 85 and a nice day in winter is 0.But I am interested in what people that have used it think...

An aluminum chute is totally worth it even if you have to paint it. Lighter weight  (work smarter not harder.) and it won't rust. Even with paint on steel it'll still rust and with rust on a chute it gets an animal dirtier then aluminum not painted, wrapped or powder coated. We've had one for at...

In Canada in '02 we were hit with a massive drought, like in some of the states right now. There was no feed or grass anywheres. That winter we had our typical cold long miserable winter. In the spring of '03 when everyone thought prices couldn't get any lower they did, the bottom fell out of...

Good old H2O a scrub brush or rice root brush and a little elbow grease! Good luck!

Red Northline Fat Tony, he's the 2011 U.S. National Red Angus champion from Denver. His calves are averaging 78 pounds at birth and grow. He has a big hip and huge topped. I posted pictures last week on here of him and some of his calves. I know a couple club calf herds have used him already...

Yup cattle visions, Origen, ABS all three have him

Northlineangus.ca you can order it direct of the website or Origen in billings has it as well. But the websites worth a look!

Something that puzzles me about people that judge showmanship is why ask all the questions? Other then knowing the birthdate of your calf and it's weight have you ever in a confirmation class at a show been asked what the animals breeding is or what you would change about it? I think knowing how...

Thanks to everyone that used him. We appreciate the support in our herd and the bull. All the calves I've seen have been small at birth and unassisted calving. (The -4.3 BW is pretty bang on.) The one thing I have noticed about his calves is that they stay small til about the 2-3 month mark...

He's full name is Red Northline Fat Tony 605U and yes he is a red angus. We had him in Denver the last 2 years so maybe you seen him there......

I'm new to this site and think it rocks.  A couple months ago there was talk about Red Northline Fat Tony.  Here is a picture of him at Denver and two of his calves.

Last year at the big Fleckvieh and fullblood Simmi sale they averaged 4,200 and the high seller was 10,250 on the bred heifers. Only 17 bred heifers sold but still shows that there is a market for them up here. The bulls averaged 3,300.

Come to Canada! They're are still lots of herds here. Lewis Farms still sells a wack of them every year and this year they averaged around 5000........ A Traditional Simmi is as common as the Reds and Blacks. It's one of the reasons why Red Angus are so popular cuz the traditional commercial...

You'll never get politics outta showing cattle. It's part of the gig, somedays your the bug somedays your the windshield.
