    question about hay

    It is called a Maillard reaction or sometimes also refered as Browning reaction or tobacco browning.  It occurs when hay is put up a little on the wet side and starts to heat.  If the bales get hot enough it will trigger a reaction between the sugar and protein in the hay resulting in the brown...

    get it done steers

    We raised 3 a few years ago, all steers.  Sold 2 of them for show steers, the other one ended up in our feedlot.  He added bone, muscle, hair and more size than most clubby type bulls.  The BW's were plenty big, with a long gestation. They weren't crazy, but they were damn bull headed and...

    Its Complicated...Who is he out of?

    I talked to Todd back in April and they thought he might be a Yellow Jacket out of a Heat Wave cow.  But they didn't have any DNA results back yet. I'm not sure if they even collected him.  Todd said he looked damn good, but he was just running around his pasture at that time.

    Bojo Calves

    We had 4 Bojo calves this year.  The three heifers weighed 96, 80, and 76.  The bull weighed 108, but he is out of a Godfather cow that always has big calves.  All calves came unassisted and were vigorous at birth.  I would not use him on a heifer, but after that I think you would be fine. ...

    Habanero vs. Irish Whiskey Your opinion

    I've never used IW so I can only answer to Habanero, and I don't think that you would be disappointed.  We have 8 direct Habanero daughters and many granddaughters and they consistently raise some of our best calves. Habanero has sired the champion steer at Houston twice plus many other major...

    March Madness Preview show in Albert Lea

    This was our first year to exhibit at this show and we had a good time.  We had champion Charolais with our composite heifer, and 3rd in class with our Maine heifer.  I agree that the payouts were very generous.  Quality of cattle were very good. Nice show, we will be back next year.
