    ARB Registration ?

    Last week we were at the show in Austin and we had one of our kids in this breed and it was pretty amazing. Our kid showed a Star 5 heifer (1/2 Gert and 1/2 Braford composite) that we raised and in her class (Class 2) there were 5 heifers. She stood 4th and the kid that was 5th had what looked...

    Is it possible......

    That you can get a heifer that will never break to lead? I have an earlier post about one that we are having major problems with and she will not lead.  She will lead to water and back to the pen but if you try and lead her somewhere else she will not budge.  We have hooked her up to the truck...

    Anyone using the eco boost for hauling?

    Currently have a 2007 Chevy 2500 with a 6.0 Vortec and am thinking about trying the Ford eco boost. Does it really do as they state, and can it be used to haul a 20ft aluminum trailer with show heifers? Just wanting to know if anyone is using this engine, and wanting to hear the good and bad. Thanks

    Stubborn heifer

She is a santa gertrudis, you can do just about anything to her, she gets tied up for 30 minutes 3 times a day, has been washed and even clipped on and takes it all in stride. As soon as you take her...

    As you all know down here in Texas hay is about priced like gold and today we came across bailed corn stalk 4X5 rolls. Is this ok to feed to cattle?
