Today’s Steerplanet Self Righteously Judgmental Moment™ is brought to you by Show Heifer. Show Heifer, for all those moments when you wonder whether others approve of how you manage your show cattle.

aj, you raise a non-mainstream breed of cattle and you like how your herd in doing? How is that even possible?

AJ, what are you on your computer for?  Shouldn't you be loading all of your Durham Red cattle on the trailer RIGHT NOW to make room for this new line of cattle? Or are you just regurgitating your same old schtick and telling everyone what they are doing wrong while not actually practicing it...

How about a four hose system?  It could be used to both dry and slick sheer cattle by blowing all the hair and skin off.

Cowfarmer65, how do you select for bulls that never throw breeched calves?

Oh crap, now if a Charolais actually wins Kobo will start whining about how it was rigged, how the champions cost too much, and "what are we teaching our kids".

Significantly more relevant than Shorthorn or novelty breeds such as Durham Red but still relatively small.

So it's just your standard anti-club calf rhetoric that you think people aren't tired of yet?

Huh?  You make that statement as if it's fact but act shocked that he's now in the Shorthorn breed? That's like complaining there are liberals in San Fransisco.  Dude, Heatwave was in Shorthorns before those other breeds even knew he existed.

Do you mean the calf you said got third in his class?

Good picture?

My post went right over the heads of a couple of you.

You are a terrible human being for even asking the question.  You shouldn't be allowed near a steer for even knowing that air'ing exists. [There guys, that part of the thread is out of the way so you can focus on the actual question]

Well done on not spilling the beans on what half a dozen people have asked you for.  Marketing 101 teaches that it's a great idea to completely ignore what your potential customers are asking for and make them jump through hoops to get what they want.

AJ, I fully realize somebody could say the sky is blue and you’d find a way to seque that into a discussion of why anybody who even attends a steer show should never be allowed near cattle again.  However, what the hell is it you think you are replying to because if it was me you aren’t making a...

Why the bull studs let idiots with cameras within a hundred miles of their bulls in working clothes is beyond me.  As much as people bitch about bulls being fed, fit, and photoshoped, heaven help the bull who is seen without it.  Here's a shocker, you breed to terminal bulls for terminal...

I thought we were taking about Hereford.  What does the Chianina association have to do with it?

If they were honest with themselves, they'd add "good enough to win grand champion" to the list of disqualifications in the classification guide. I have no doubt the Hereford association will promote this as some proof of progress in the breed while looking down their noses at the type of...

I assume there was no milk in the vehicle?

Which of the big name hereford operations do you feel is making the most progress?  LaGrand?  Remitall?  DeShazer?
