Thanks for your input. I agree with you completely and im the guy who sells it!!! I actually looked into putting an LRP policy on a set of heifers that I have running on oats now. It wouldnt pay to do it because the market is just floundering around going in a straight line right now and it...

love this song, I like anything Ryan Bingham. He's a true product of West Texas. No nashville pop BS.

No rain here since the 2nd week of September. I planted Oats and Clover and had a he77 of a stand and its pretty much gone now.

Have any of you actually eaten organic grass fed, no grain whatsoever beef that was certified organic? Tastes like he77, but I am also accustomed to eating fat corn fed cattle. I have another thread about freezer beef going now because I have been thinking about selling some freezer beef...

Lots of good input here, Thanks. Sounds to me like dealing with the general public has been the problem with most of you and I can completely understand that.

maybe the panhandle and western OK

First - the marbling she had, she had at birth - you did not add any when you kept her for 45 days at about $3.30 a day (your number) - most of that fat you added was likely desposited inside the body cavity and the remainder went onto her back. Yes some cattle have more genetic potential to...

We always had home raised beef when i was growing up and i have fed out some steers on my own for my family but it has always been alot of time and money invested. I have never been able to do it this cheap. My yuppie inlaws and some of their friends wanted to buy beef halves a couple years...

To add to the dove breast thing, add a slice of jalapeno pepper and maybe a slice of onion in with the bacon wrapped around the breast. Makes it that much better, may be a Texas thing though.

I have been hearing a lot of good things about the B-Dahl, I'm thinking of trying some this spring. I have Klien and Wilman Love grass planted and have had good luck with it.

Slick, is it Mix 30?

I have seen the two cats killing a rattler thing. We used to have two female cats that stayed out in the barn and one day when i pulled up to the house, i noticed the two cats sitting on either side of the cattle guard. When I got out of the truck i heard the unmistakeable sound of a...

For me the proofs in the pudding as they say. I have owned some registered cattle that weren't any better or raised any better calves than the ones i bought at the sale barn. A lot of the bulls that i have owned have been registered as well but i couldn't care less if they were or not. Same...
