    Opinions on this Calf

    he is a nice steer. good wide butt and straight over his top. I would keep pouring the feed to him. fairs do look for the hevier steers around fair time and they tend to bring more money.

    cannot control a stubborn cow

    do not let her think she is right. That tends to make the cattle worse. just work with her. go out in her pen and just play with her and pet her.

    CLub Calf sale??? Or.....opinions please

    (clapping) I completely agree with you. I know that if I am going to a sale like I would think that they would be halter broke.And when it comes to some of those people that yes their rations are secret because they think(this is my opinion) that if they tell then they wont win. Its a huge thing...

    Opinions on this heifer?

    Shes a nice looking cow. when you set her up you may want to keep an eye on her top just to make sure its level. but thats the only 'flaw' I see. Shes gonna be a massive cow.She has alot of potential in the show ring. She also has alot of potential when it comes to offspring. She is def. a...
