Why do some people want to only send prices in an email or PM.  Not complaining, just curious.  The price is the price right?

If it's not too much touble would you post a pic of the Johny Walker calf.  I have some cows bred to him and cannot find pics of his calves.  Thanks.

We actually give a pill to the calves at birth.  I can't remember what it is called, but we haven't had scours in 6 years knock on wood.

I am really quite surprised with the response to this question.  Now I going to ask a question and I don't want anyone to take it wrong, or get offended.  Without a controled exercise schedual how do your steers travel.  Do they walk like a fat man?  And also do you have much problem with them...

It has been too long since I showed a steer and the last one I showed I over walked him.  Well maybe I just didn't have him finished well.  I have seen people talking about walking up hills and in sand.  I was just kind of wondering what everyone exercise plan was.  How big of a hill and how...

Yes just started and I'm broke just like really ranching.  O0

You'll be alright Red. God keeps and eye on good people like you.  Have faith. Rusty

The rule around our house is, if the calf isn't born 45 min after the water breaks I take it.  Sometimes when I pull them I think "jumped the gun here, should have gave her a little more time."  However I would rather think that while looking at a live calf then, "I wished I had pull him" while...

Q I'm lost.  Did I miss a good fight? ???

I have personally never showed a shorthorn , but rumor is the are great to show.  Calm and easy to handle.

There are alot of really nice people on here with alot of experience to share.  I don't think many will hold a grudge for one or two stupid posts.  If that was the case I would have lost  my log on privleges along time ago.  However that is was this post is.  It's stupid and immature.  I was 15...

Asked whether steroid withdrawal could account for Big Brown's lack of run Saturday, Dr. Larry Bramlage, a partner in Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital in Lexington, Ky., and the on-call vet at the Belmont Stakes, said he didn't think so. "The anabolic steroids keep him eating, keep him happy and...

I think Equipoise does create muscle.  Way back when (way back before the days of Clebuterol even) I KNOW that specific drug you mentioned was was commonly used in steers to create muscle.  Before steroid use in athletes became as sophisticated as it was, I know college athletes back in the who...

Show Heifer I have no idea where you are getting your information from, but you need to find a new sorce.  Tracks are much slower than they used to be.  Look at the video and compare the surfaces.  How much the hoof sinks, what the surface is made of  ect.    Don't take this statement wrong...

The Jockey did the correct thing.  Many times if a horse it sore or hurt in one leg it is the other leg that will break down during the race.  I would hate to think that by pushing him on a foot that they knew was sore he broke the opposite leg.  I am also pretty sure that the jockey did exactly...

That calf and the first calf are 3/4 brothers and dispite my crappy picture taking are alot similar.  The younger calf does have more bone than the older one and I think he will be thicker.  I need to take more time when taking pictures.  It is hard to get them to stand like I want.

Thanks for the posts.  I'm not wanting a decision made, just looking for places where I need to work on.  Next year I'll be having some calves out of some club type bull which will help toplines and a few things.  Also hopefully next year weather won't take the ears off 15 of my 20 oldest...

Here is a few more calves I would like some input on.  We'll call them 4,5 and 6 so I don't get confused. 4 is a March calf. 5 is a late March calf. And 6 is also a March calf.

Here are a few calves we are looking at for my son to show next year.  They are all purbred angus , but next spring we will have some clubier bred calves.  I would like to know where you think these calves are strong ( if anywhere), and where they are lacking.  Not thinned skinned so be honest...

I don't much about pedigrees other than angus, but that is one heck of a nice bull.  I pesonally would rather see them in their work clothes.  That way all the "holes" aren't hidden.
