(lol)  Good ones guys.  I got an email of bad signs a while ago...wonder if I still have it. The one we actually saw for ourselves that made us laugh was for a gas station/rest stop advertising their amenities, they didn't give much thought to order or spacing.  It said "Sewer Dump Ice Cream"

Ugh Red you can go ahead and resize those (I keep forgetting).  Little too much visual...you can definitely see how messed up her hair is.

sheep

Nice DL.  She looks like a mini cow in that second picture.  Maybe I'll have to come steal her (but what would the Customs guys say when they saw her in the backseat?)

collie!!

Oh I have a picture.....but you must promise not to make fun of me....I took it only as a bad example.   We had to keep her back because we weouldn't have done so well at market with her. About them being poor doers, I think it really depends.  Their hair is deformed and thin (if you look on...

Really...you've had true rat tails with the curly messed up hair, out of Charolais?  I thought it was only a Simmental thing.  I agree they are ugly things. And on the colour, you're right, breeding to pure white Char gives 100% smoky, breeding to a smoky gives only a 50/50 chance.

You mean the guts to say things that should be said more often and aren't like "this heifer is overconditioned"

That's just the thing.  I try not to judge people on where there knowledge comes from, because if they have it they have it.  And different people have different kinds of knowledge, so the more they can learn from each other, the better.

Oh so he could be bay or bay roan.  I think often the roan doesn't show up until they change coats.  Now you'll be waiting on that...But hey you handled a 376 day gestation

He sure is cute.  you should call him Streakin' under the Moon  ;D  He looks bay....sometimes babies have what look like dun factor, but isn't truly.  It's just their camoflauge.  What color was Dad? Red - baby horses are notorious for changing colour a lot for the first year or so.  How...

Exactly Elbee.  That quote sums it up exactly.  Like I said before, heterosis is an increase in performance that you get when crossing two unrelated lines.  It isn't just about weight gain in calves, though that is one trait that certainly benefits.  It influences a whole host of traits.  If...

rye

Heheh never thought of it like that before DL.  But i can just see you explaining that to someone in the street or a coffee shop....and well...you can imagine how that could be overheard wrong. Well I'm off...Vancouver game started

Board (and yes DL I was watching some Sharks/Predators highlights when I came up with that.  But then realized...hey sharks ARE pradators)

I know about the fish thing, but I don't like fish all that much.  I try to have  a tuna sandwich here and there just because I know about Omega 3's.  Also, I always buy the bread and bagels with flax seed on top, and the taste has actually really grown on me. Because the health benefits of the...

I'm sorry...I don't think I'm quite getting the point here (Maybe I just feel the need to defend my own mongrel herd  ;D).  If it is a commercial guy some of those mongrel cows are probably benefiting from the heterosis for their maternal traits.  But, that's when it's especially important for...

Oh Barrel racer congratuations!!  I can't wait to see pictures.

Garybob, I'm sorry you've had to run into those people.  It's actually one reason I like internet message boards.  We don't see people as what they look like or who their friends are.  We get to judge people on what they have to say, which is something that doesn't happen enough in the world. ...
