Thank you Gonewest for the interesting post! For everyone's information Gonewest does the website for our farm and when I sent him the pic of this half Simmi half Red Angus heifer that we are selling to put on the website, he was so impressed with her, he posted here..... resulting in an...

I really hope that you can find another project animal. It would appear that this calf has had very good care and very good feed. Your youngster would benefit, I think by a successful project; I bet there are ppl on this forum that could help out with locating another calf.

It would seem like it is so simple and easy to prove what is going on. AK-SAR-BEN has noseprints and/or DNA on file of every steer that showed there.... so how exceedingly simple it will be to prove or disprove this allegation. The noseprint/DNA from AK-SAR-BEN is obtained and compared to the...

Have had no problems with either Walks Alone or Monopoly....remember, Monopoly is half Angus if that makes you feel better about his potential calving ease. The theory behind the larger birth weights when it is colder is that to keep warm, the cow's body pumps blood through the core of their...

they are beautiful!!! last year we had 10 sets of twins in the spring calving herd... while most were alive at birth with all sorts of positions at calving, prob about half were obviously preemie and struggled to live. your calves look full term and very healthy!!

DL, would you address the problem in Nuflor of killing the appetite? We used Nuflor way back when it came out and it seemed like it really killed the appetite of the animal we treated which is opposite of what you want of course. We love Draxxin; $400/bottle, doesn't matter. You get what you...

I am sure we will have one for you born maybe even yet this winter.... more Monecitos coming in Nov.!!! (used on cows that can spot cause didn't know yet when we used him he was a spotter).... they are very good calves; if you want, we can keep you in mind!

we had a bad infection in a castration site; used Draxxin at the recommended rate. think it took 2-3 treatments.... it was a bad infection but now the steer is totally healed and doing very well.

the commercial guys out here won't buy white legged bulls..... they want to keep all the black on their calves they can. pretty sure it is all about demand at the sale barn; the feedlots like those large uniform sets of solid black calves.

We had six born last March. Two are solid black really great bull prospects. All of the calves are growthy, stout, big topped, big ribbed but if there is a drawback to this bull, be sure and use him on solid black cows for a generation or two; he will color them up with white legs, white belly...

some years ago, we played the carcass shows pretty hard; it is almost always without exception impossible for a judge to pick out which steer will hang the best carcass because it is impossible for a judge to estimate marbling of the meat which dictates quality grade.  a judge tried to do this...

last fall consigned a Walks Alone x pb Simmi steer to a sale; had to take him in to get a TB test done; vet injected the TB under the tail and opened the headgate.... when the calf came out, he wouldn't step on his back leg. turned out the vet had not let off enough squeeze on the chute and...

Feed costs for what? I read an article the other day written by a guy in Ohio that said that this maybe the time to buy bred cows.....that the cows in Ohio will be fed the best that they have ever been fed because of all the available silage that is being cut; lots and lots of silage being cut...

along with having Monopoly registered as a foundation sire with the ASA, they will not send you papers until the TH test results are sent to them; you will however get an online pedigree, an ASA #, but no paper until that test is complete. I just checked for you, Monopoly is registered as a...

they do register at 25%

it is easy to track but is it so easy to prove in a court of law that a certain specific person is the one that posted something when a computer maybe shared by a several different ppl? also you have to PROVE a dollar amount of the damages in a court of law..... it is an expensive and time...

we like Legend calves....we have several cows sired by him in production and they have made good good momma cows; this heifer maybe the greatest winner for you in the pasture as a momma..... use I-80 on her the first year to be TH clean and pretty up her neck and head..... you may have a home run!

<party> what a fun story!!! you must have taken very good care of your calf!

just saw JPJ at Genex in Mitchell not so long ago; the guys at Genex were bragging about what a super sound bull he was for being as old as he was..... would think there would be plenty of semen around yet; hope they don't jack up the price too much.
