BTDT--Who, in your opinion, should have won the Red Angus heifer show at ISF ?

We're looking for a corgi puppy. Any info or leads would be appreciated. Send a pm. Thank you!

While I agree with many of your opinions GONEWEST, to penalize club calf producers in IA and OH due to Romney's inability to win those states makes no sense. I would guess the majority of ag people in both states voted "R". While I'm frustrated with the outcome of this election as well, I think...

Any results on the Herfs in the BPF sale? I believe they were lots 27-38.

Pretty sure SULL owns the cow...

Trevor--Some of your thoughts may be correct, but the Canadian and U.S. dollars are virtually equal in value presently. I just checked before bidding on cattle in Canada. This does not mean I support current U.S. fiscal policy.... ;D

So did I, obie...

sent u a PM obie...can't wait for a reply!

Obie--I would be interested in knowing what show you are referring to...I won't ask you to mention the judge's name. Hard to imagine a judge would make such a statement, especially given the current emphasis on soundness by many judges...

We have fed Finishing Touch, but it would not be my first choice of feeds if you want/need to push one really hard. As others have said, palatability can sometimes be an issue--at least with some cattle.

I agree with the suggestions offered by others, probably most importantly do not make any sudden or drastic changes in his ration. As others have said, a few days off feed can be pretty tough on ADG, especially going into warmer weather. At this point, I think we all pretty much agree that ADG...

Umm, I only have one account on SP...

Speaking--or posting--in third person is an interesting strategy....wish I had thought of it...

Nope, only the opinions you post on here. Does that mean your shorthorns are "clubby" bred??

This thread has certainly went off-topic...and brings up a few issues. First, congratulations to Shortdawg and his family on their win with the steer. They showed him in a show that classifies the steers, so they certainly played within the rules. Believe me, I understand the system. As for...

There are a bunch of really good county fairs in IA. I think to pick 1 "best" county fair would be very difficult. What would your criteria be? Most competitive? Which species? Best facilities? Largest livestock shows? Biggest attendance? Most community support? The list could go on and on. I...

Years ago (probably 30+) Beartooth Ranch in Montana, who at the time was one of the dominant Polled Hereford operations in North America, pictured a bull with the caption "sagebrush clearance". Not so much with this fellow... ;D

Sold to a young lady from OK. Thank you! Thanks to everyone for your interest!

We took some quick pictures of the heifer this morning. PM your email address and we'll send pictures.
