My Angus cow finally calved and my heifer is of age to be bred. Any suggestions as to what might work with them. They are both unregistered Angus. The cow has had 4 calves all small but no problems and is a great mother. Some things that I am looking for possibly are possibly a bald or blaze...

What kind of birth weights does he (LaGrand) tend to throw. I have a cow due early spring with her third calf and am thinking of using him. Her numbers ce +1.7, bw +2.6, ww 38, yw 56. She has not thrown an extremely large calf so far. Her last heifer was just slightly above average but nothing...

I was surprised that the youngest class winner took overall Grand Champion. I did not disagree he was very nice but so many judges eye seemed to drift to the larger animals. Reserve was a larger bull. I guess it is nice to see a judge be able to go on the merits for where the animal is in its...

I was thinking of something 100 dollars or less. I just did not want be out 500-1000 dollars for something that might be sold at a sale barn a year down the road. They cow and heifer are nice but I don't know that either are good enough for flushing, possibly the heifer still have to wait and...

I am pretty sure that at least one of the 30,000 was only half interest and possesion. There were a couple other half interest in the sale as well.

I was also wondering about BR DM L1 Domino 146 I have seen him personally and he looks nice. I know he has sired a bunch of winners but is he becoming out dated or is he still a top sire?

I am a little ways off  but already trying to plan for my Hereford breeding. I don't see much about Hereford on these post but hoping some have some ideas. I have a cow and a heifer both will be needing to be bred. The cow has NJW 1y Wrangler 19D background. Heifer has C-S Pure Gold in her...

I have Angus and some Hereford but I am looking into adding Simmental influence with my Angus.

What about smaller local shows that only have American, British and Exotic classes?

I know that with a crossbred heifer From a Hereford X Angus would have to show as a commercial heifer. What class would a steer fall in?  I know if  that this cross would not have a prayer if it would fall under exotics, but seeing as neither breed is an exotic I did not guess that they would be...

What is the difference between the slick shows and others. Does it truly mean that the animals are shown slick or does it have to do withwhat can be used on the hair?

How big was the heifer? This is a cow but all of her calves have been small to this point. Just prefer to err on the safe side. I know she is not a show winner but she has been a champ at breeding back quickly and consistently. I would hate to loose her for that reason. I definitely like the...

Do you know who owns Silveiras Style?

To answer the OH Breeder reply I am not as concerned about show steers. I prefer to get improved heifers. I don't have a lot of cows so I am looking to have some heifers worth keeping. Even with the heifers at this point if they were shown it more than likely would not be above a county level as...

Attached is a few pictures of an Angus cow that I am going to be A.I. ing shortly she calved a couple of days before this pick. She is not registered. I have asked in an earlier post about Angus sires. I am  not opposed to other breeds as well. She has had 3 bull calves 2 limmi influence and one...

Northern improvement seems to be a universal choice as one of the top Angus sires. Are there any other Angus sire suggestions that produce good functional offspring with some showy qualities as well and if so are they better at providing quality bull calves or heifers. Thanks for any and all...

In the breeds that can be registered as a percentage, does anyone know what the required % are. I was thinking that Simmental is 50% or higher. I also thought I had heard that Shorthorns were either no longer doing % or were talking about doing away with it. I am not sure about that just thought...

I have a couple of unregistered Angus cows that I am wanting to improve their overall performance. When I a say unregistered I mean that they look Angus and when I bought them that is what I was told. Somewhere down the line I feel sure they have something else in them. In the process of trying...

I have been reading on some of the post about the calving problems associated with club bulls. I have an Angus heifer I am about to breed. I am thinking of crossing her with a simmi bull. I have not decided which one yet. I have had a previous post asking suggestions. At this point with...
