    Matt Lautner Calves

    Thanks.  After we go up there this weekend and view the calves I might have more questions.  I always like to know where the calves "originally" come from.

    Question on calf comments appreciated

    Unfortunately, it sounds like spastic paresis. I had a heifer get this disease.  We took her to the Iowa State University for surgery, unfortunately without good results and she had to be put down. I sure hope this isn't the case for your calf..

    Popping pasterns

    THANK YOU a lot for your comments.  I am glad I went with my "gut" feeling and passed on the calf.  I think the owner thought I wasn't going to notice it, guess what "I DID."  We learn something new every day don't we in the cattle business...

    Popping pasterns

    I have a question on popping pasterns. I looked at a Sunseeker calf yesterday and noticed he had popping in pasterns.  First of all is this a Sunseeker trait?  Will it affect the calf all of showing life and lastly was I wise on not buying the calf?? Thanks for your time..

    Favorite thing to do at a cattle show or on show day?

    Watching my kids enter the show ring with their head held high and proud of the animal they are showing.  My daughter who is 10  says she could show all day long if the judge would let her..She won junior showmanship at our county fair this year as a beginner.  (clapping) (clapping)
