    Tail swishing

    Our halters have zip ties on them because we get them in Louisville. At the North American after our health papers have been checked they give us zip ties to put on the halters.  That way when cattle come into the barn they can see easily if they have been through the health check-in.  We just...

    Laptops

    I had a Dell desktop and switched to a Macbook recently and love it. I never had any problems with my Dell but for what I want to do a Mac was necessary.  If you have the money I would recommend a Mac just because you don't have near the problems.  Also I would make sure to steer clear of...

    Pigs, Pigs and more Pigs!!!

    I was actually born and raised on a pig farm and spent 10 years showing pigs, just in 4-H but rewarding none the less.  The thing I have always loved about pigs is that management plays such a large role in how a pig turns out.  Don't get me wrong management is important with cattle too but a...

    website

    I do not have a URL yet.  The website is for our junior organization so we are trying to find ways to do it as cheap as possible.  Like I said the design and updates are no problem as I am a communications major with an emphasis on graphic design and have done some web design.  I am just trying...

    website

    I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on where to go for free website hosting.  I know how to design the page but am looking to get it up on the web for free, rather than having to pay for a domain name.

    I have not seen a lot of Salute calves but from what I have seen the heifers look pretty good but the steers I saw were terrible.

    Breaking to Lead

    I have a heifer that I got a late start on (she is a year old) and is not broke to lead.  She is broke to tie and is a baby to work on but when I try to lead her anywhere she wants to take off and run away.  I would really appreciate any tips that anyone has on the best way to get her broke to...

    From the American Shorthorn Association

    I don't really have a problem with the rush fee.  In fact I had to pay it earlier this year because I didn't get my paperwork in on time.  The issue I have is with them saying that the average is 2 weeks to get paperwork back when I know for a fact the true average is 6 - 10 weeks (I was told...

    sale of champions NWSS

    I heard that the Reserve Hamp was categorized as a crossbred but the owners wanted it shown as a purebred so later they went back and told the people something got messed up and their pig was supposed to show as a Hamp.  The person who classified the pig wasn't there at that time and the people...

    Shorthorn

    We have a heifer calf by 844 that is nice.  She is out of a smaller framed first calf heifer and we had no problem with her. She is not really clubby but a nice heifer. I will try and attach a picture of her.
