    Some thoughts and questions about beef

    The article I posted explains that the Japanese do not concentrate on the meat being their main dish at dinner, their main dish is rice and the beef is a side dish. Unlike Americans which meat is the main focus. They're also three types of Wagyu fat and all fat does not taste the same. Wagyu...

    My cousin lived out in Nevada USA and he lived off the grid for about 30 + years. Delivered all of his own children and his wife homeschooled them. They grew all their own food. He was very successful in living off the grid so much so that Architectural Digest came out and interviewed him and...

    Grow your own or buy?

    We keep all our heifers, but we're still establishing our herd, and we sale replacement heifers. But our herd is all registered with the exception of the steers. Our cost to raise a heifer for 2 years is $2.15 a day.... And that's if nothing happens that requires medical attention.

    Bought some wangus

    Congratulations f1 Wagyu produces some pretty high quality steak, probably won't get much above prime but if you feed them out right you will get at least prime or a little better. As the percentage of Wagyu gets higher such as f2 f3 and F4 you will begin to get the higher grades such as a BMS...

    Jeans for Women Farmers?

    I've been through every brand of jeans. Carhartt got really cheap a few years ago. Levi's might or might not fit right. Try Ultra work pants from TSC. Wear them every day. Outlast any pair of jeans. Rip stop nylon. BIG pockets. Not sure how they fit women.

    Freeze miser experience?

    Yes someone just mentioned these in another thread. We use them... they start dripping a few degrees before freezing the colder it gets the more they drip. I believe I have eight of them installed. They do cause a lot of ice to accumulate underneath the faucet we just throw protein tubs under them

    What do these EPDs numbers mean and what's the difference?

    You have been given some great explanations of how epds work. But I always caution people that epds can be subjective and also in my honest opinion feed, environment, and stress play a huge role. The best epds in the world won't help you if you don't first make sure the cattle are being...

    Finishing A Wagyu

    Actually yes we did finish an Angus for 36 months. It gave us a good comparison because it was raised in the same pasture/feed that the wagyu were raised. It did have good marbling and she was 1550 but hung at 965 I believe. She had a tremendous amount of brisket fat and tail head fat but did...

    Cold fingers

    We're only at 1600 ft so I avoid the icy roads in the winter most the times, it's the ultimate weather here in my opinion. And yes it's absolutely beautiful and our dogs loved our creek. There's more wildlife and beautiful areas then you'll ever be able to see in a lifetime

    On the heavy side

    We have one 4 yr old girl that's about 1500 pounds which seems a little heavy to me for a Japanese black. Most of our girls run about 1200. But her pedigree shows that cattle in her family run heavy, big frame and very long. I used to worry about her a little bit because she would dominate the...
