I appreciate the complement. I take pride in raising and feeding my cattle and understand that it takes hours of hard work and research to get em good. I really lik thriller too but from my understandings of this conversation I might just try him out next year :)

.  Thank you very much I will definitely check that out!

It helps to research different feeds and additives. I finish my steers on showmaster finisher grain and add in power phat when I'm pushing them hard. There are also liquid fats you could utilize something as simple as vegetable oil could work if you start him out slowly. However you don't want...

Which is totally fine because i wasnt aware of this that's why I asked for suggestions. I won't be breeding them until may so there is still time to hear more suggestions and advice. Thank you:) keep the advice coming I'd love to hear who you guys would breed these heifers to and why. The...

I actually had not looked into Jessie James until now so thank you for the suggestion. The heifers sire is I-80 and dam is out of Jigsaw. She is a smaller framed calf so if thriller throws smaller calfs maybe it is best to look elsewhere. I have just noticed a trend in the high selling heifers...

I am thinking about breeding this heifer to Thriller and am looking for input on your guys experience with this bull. Anything is appreciated.

I has been pretty cold here. She's not fat she's only about 700 pounds. I guess I will call the breeder or the vet and figure this one out. Thanks anyway

I have ha my new heifer for just over a month she was born in feb. I have noticed that she is constantly seeming to breath heavily even without any activity. Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how to make it better???

Here is a picture of the heifer I have already

.  Thank you this is helpful :)

Yes this is a live auction so I will be going to the sale and viewing the heifer in person. I have had too many bad experiences buying online. I was just asking an opinion I understand it is hard to make judgement from just one picture

This is the only picture of her unfortunately. The sale is a live auction with a two hour preview. I agree with you though I like my heifers deep and wide and sound as a cat

Rinse, blow, brush, comb, repeat. There is definitely a lot of work that goes into hairy cattle. On days where I can't rinse and fall short of time I definitely make time to comb my cattle daily to stimulate their hair. It's the same feeling as someone playing with your hair that same tingly...

A neck sweat will ultimately just help refine the look of his neck and keep it from looking too chunky. When I put a neck sweat on my animals it's only in the day time. You can get neck sweats from Sullivan supply for about $40 I'm not sure where to get them any cheaper. I have also seen the...

Yes I agree soundness is what will make or break the deal for me on any animal! :)

I just looked it up for you it is 8.95$ that's not including shipping obviously but it is pretty cheap. I have only bought it once and it has treated 3 head of cattle for me and I still have it so it is a good buy if you ask me.

This is one of a few heifers I am looking at in a sale this weekend and am wondering what your thoughts are on her. She is a registered Maintainer

The best product I have ever used on warts is "warts off" by Sullivan's supply. It is a topical treatment that should be applied to the warts probably twice a day and I normally get rid of them within a week or so. I have found that this works well especially around sensitive areas on their...

Awesome I will definitely look into it!

What is Pre-Con? I am knowledgeable on most feedstuffs however I have never heard if this.
