Red

1a was her cow(flush) & 1b was a dtr she had sold out of her cow & they sold a flush out of her also.

I forgot to mention I spent some time with Malinda & Pegwood at the sale. Also met JIT at the sale , I was a little disappointed in JIT though, they said they wouldn't let him on the airplane with the grape kool-aid , but he did look quite knowledgable in his flowing white robe.

Wish I could've been there to met you Doc, and a few other folks.  Been under the weather for the past few days. 

Did you bring new critters home with ya? 

Glad you had a good time.

I'll put them in this fall. I bought some Bloodstones out of the same cow this spring , stuck 2 of them in & have 1 preg coming from them.

 

[OH Breeder]

WOW. 50K that is a chunk.

Pegwood folks are SUPER nice people so down to earth. Did you met Peggy and her nephew.
I haven't had the pleasure to meet Malinda. I saw her from a far at the Ohio Beef Expo but she snuck out before I could get to her.
Great looking cattle.

At thee risk of being beat to death...did it appear that the old Nobody's Fool was pha free according to her progency?

Aj, what are you going to do when someone finally knows her status?  You will have to find another quest at challenging as this one.  I think part of its allure is that it's such a great mystery.

All of the ones going back to NF was PHAF. lot #5 was THC but of course that comes from Fortune.

 

[Malinda]

Hey aj,

I'll provide the shovel and you can go to Texas and dig Nobody's Fool up and test her carcass. I think that will be the only way to make sure you get a good night's sleep. Just kidding!

It was good to see Doc again. He said he went to visit his Baja bull while he was at Cates'. My guess is that Doc's face will soon be known to all that get the Shorthorn Country. The funny part is that "Doc" will be seen between two nurses! He'll be the little one!!!

It was a pleasure to meet JIT. The sad part of these sales is that you never seem to have enough time to visit with everyone. Since JIT is our encyclopedia of Shorthorn genetics, I wish we could have had more time to visit.

There were several people that ask me why Boyerts did not have their DZ daughter there for everone to see, since they sold a flush out of her. The answer is that she is due to calve today. Any of you that were there on Fri. saw several cows panting and with their tongues out. I'm glad they left her home. Why take a chance?

The best news I had all weekend was that I am going to be bringing DZ home, probably after I get back from the Ten. State Fair. I will winter her here but take her back to Cates' to calve.....I am down to one vet in the area and he's always at the yards on Thurs and he is now doing small animal. Would not want to need him and have to wait for him to neuter a tom cat.

My pick of the litter was the was the 2b heifer that Bailey Clanton bought. That heifer looks amazingly like the Sarah heifer of Boyert's at the same age. The DZ's only get better with age and Bailey's heifer will, in my worthless opinion, do nothing but get better. With that in mind, the lot 1 heifer looks ten times better now than she did in the picture. I am not real familiar with the Salute's, but the DZ part of her will continue to get even better.

I think the bred heifers were the best the Cates' have ever offered.

Everyone have a good day,

Malinda

I forgot to mention....

If my math is correct lots 1 thru 7, the Fool cow family, sold for $186,750.

Not bad for an old cow buried in Texas.
