What would you recommend?? We have a 2 Gelbvieh's, 1 Baldy and 1 CharX

Yes 110%. We were there with the AI tech and he showed us the straw. His Mom is a baldy.

Yes this is the same one...on the mindset of keeping him and making him a steer.  So bad attitudes- check! He has that!

Wondering why also...I have no interest in keeping him a bull, but another rancher mentioned interest if we change our mind.

What would you do?? He was born June 2017, AI'd with Believe in Me. Estimate weight: 650-700lbs

We have this 9mos. old bull that's been in the pasture with other young bulls and a few young heifers.  We did see him riding the others.  My question is, if he we can get him cut is he worth using as a steer or just forget it and find something else.  We have in a stall now and he's a bit...

Show date is Feb. 9.  I really don't feel he's converting well.  I think his fiber is too high in his feed.  Going to switch his feed over the next week.  He's been wormed, but he's due again here soon.  I will get that and have my daughter do that next week.  We've been giving probiotics in a...

We need help getting our daughter's market steer to gain weight.  He's 730 and a slow gainer.  We have a Feb 2018 fair and would like to see him over 1000lbs.  Any recommendations??  Right now our feed is 14% protein 2.5% fat 23% fiber and we add soybean meal and cotton seed meal.  The feed is...

Thank you for the feedback, we certainly appreciate it.

Hello!  We have an October born steer, whose weight in just over 700lbs.  He's on a feed with 14% protein 3% fat and calf mana.  We've been told to give him rice bran stabilizer or look into purina supplements.  He's short and muscular, so we want to make him wider.  What should we do.  Our...

Thanks for the tips.  We wormed him the other night.  We've been leaving his feed in there all day and he eats. He is still a bull and we need to have him cut or banded, hopefully in the next couple of weeks.  We weren't around due to shows and fair much, so we wanted to wait until we were done...

My daughter is raising her first steer this year.  He was a budget steer.  We got him at 315, and weighed him 30 days later at 370.  Our fair has a minimum weigh in of 650, by August 5.  Do you think this is doable?  What should we add to his feed if it'll help.  He gets 9lbs. of feed and hay...

We are new to all this steer stuff this year.  My daughter purchased a steer for Feb. 2018 show.  He was a good budget steer $650.  My question is, if your end result for a market show steer is auction and slaughter, why in the world do some people pay over $1500 for one.  In my mind, I'm...
