I have been looking at Depth charge now for a while. I have never used it before. So you suggest I use depth charge AND beet pulp? Add this into her daily diet or into a show ration?

Her sire is Monopoly and her dam is purebred Charolais

Hey guys! Her first show is comin up on the second weekend in November. I'd like to see what you guys think of her. What you like what you would change and how you would change it. She is a February born and is on 12 pounds of showmaster heifer developer. Thanks!

I guess she could also be registered as composite charloais seeing as her dam is a pure bred. I wasn't aware that Chi was an option as well so thank you for that! :)

Okay guys, I'm brand new into the world of breeding beef so bear with me! :) New rules for the California Junior Livestock Association state that all heifers must be registered in order to earn points at the shows. I have a heifer that I am planning on bidding on in a sale this weekend who is a...

Has anyone had experience with the "full and fresh" feed additive by showmaster. I am looking into different feeds for this years show cattle and wondered if anyone has had successes or more knowledge of this feed.

Awesome advice thank you!

Her sire is Monopoly and a Dam out of Escapade

What advice can you give to someone buying a heifer for the first time. Clearly breeding stock are going to have different desirable qualities than livestock for market and I need some help. I have found a heifer that I like from a breeder that I have purchased market steers from before and...

Yes feed is weighed out in a scale and takes me about a day and a half to go through one bag of feed for two steers. I'd actually like to see them gain a little les per day cuz I fear they will be gigantic by fair in late July. They are on a pound of beet pulp a day for roughage as well as two...

K well his weights average out to roughly 4 pounds a day they gets weighed every other week. It's just what the numbers say and my basic math skills are up to scale the only factor that would be off is if the scale is that inaccurate but the weights have been consistent at shows around California

Nope 7pounds (8pounds) in the morning and 7pounds (8pounds) at night. I haven't weighed them since they've been on the finisher the last time they got weighed was march 24th so hopefull it will lower conversion rates as they start to finish but yes that's why I have stayed away from feeding...

He's been gaining real well up around 4 pounds a day on 16 pounds of grain with a pound and a half of calf manna and roughly a pound of beet pulp a day. He has trouble focusing on eating and doesn't always want to finish his grain  My other steer is a bit fatter and I have him on 14 pound of...

He is super sound and we are working in fattening him up. I will look into these products though. I wa told to look into showflex earlier as a product that would help my other steer who pops in his joints

I've heard about show flex and looked it up but I don't think it's in the market anymore

So I have a steer who looks awesome from a profile view is nice and level topped, big fronted and has good rib shape to him but is narrow from the hind view. He's currently eating 16 pounds a day of showmaster finisher and his last show with be fair in early August. Is there anything I can do to...

I have had success with the showmaster feeds. Apparently it is just super expensive where I am (California) but I hear it's fairly cheap everywhere else. Good luck

Alright so I have a calf that weighs just over a thousand pounds and he's filling out really nicely and I will be switching him from the showmaster grower he's on now to the showmaster finishing feed however I am wondering if I should also switch my other calf who is around 930 pounds and still...

I've used warts off around the eye and haven't experienced any problems. I find it's the easiest method actually. So long as you are careful when applying it, it has worked flawlessly for me for a long time. I do find success ripping off warts as well however find it more effective and easier to...

I've had a lot of trouble with warts and sometimes ripping off warts doesn't get the whole growth and you won't want to rip off anything around the eye anyway. A wart product I swear by it's a "warts off" creams by Sullivan supply. If you apply it morning and night and cover the warts with it...
