I just bought a Semen Tank to use on my cows. The tank holds 500 straws. My question are the following. 1. I found semen on a bull i want to buy. One place has his semen $9.00 and another has it for $15.00. Does one make the difference in your opinions. 2. How long do I have to get the semen...

I agree I like the ANgus breed and yes they are good but you can find breeding problems and poor qualities in them as well as any other breed. I think it is bad when you go to the Ky Beef Expo or the North American and each breed looks the same. I will say the herefords are stayimg true to their...

You are exactly correct. I raise Fullblood chianin and percentage chis. I have more calls for fullbloods than anything else. The chi cattle as they are called today in my opinion are no more than angus. The breed has lost its way when it come to cattle. If you want a club calf bull than this is...

Plus of the breed: 1. Calves will grow very fast. 2. Easy calving most of our calves weigh about 70lbs when born. 3. You do not have to creep feed. Neg of the breed: 1. Most people have no clue about the breed. 2. Most of the percentage chi are poorly bred for working cattle. 3.

do you have email i would be glad to send them to you

We raise the italian fullblood chianina. They do very well crossed on other breeds of cattle. The best cross we have found for the fullblood is on a shorthorn cow. We also raise a percentage herd of cows as well. We have been raising them for 30 years. Thanks Chris

Here at our farm we raise fullblood chianina and precentage chianina. My son is wanting to show a hereford heifer this summer. I am wanting to know if anyone can recommend any hereford bloodlines for cows and bulls to picke a heifer from. Also I live in Kentucky does anyone know of any good...

just checking but could someone send me directions on how to get pics on the site. I go to the gallery but i d not see a upload button. Thanks Chris Howard

I would say that the most unique breed would be the fullblood chianina crossed on any breed would super charge the offspring. I raise fullbloods and percentage chianina. We do not creep feed and only give worm and black leg shots. The chianina can handle the drought and wet weather as well as...

Just a quick note this thread was started by me not about % percenatge chi cattle but rather Full Blood Chianina cattle.Some of you may want to learn the difference in them before you talk about them. Just a quick question. My chi cross calves that I sold saturday were bought and put in the same...

As for my cows and my herd. If you do not like what i have dont look we just sold our first set of 6month old calves saturday. They averaged 680lbs off the cow with no creep feed. Now if my cows dont suit your needs or think they are of quality then dont look. There has not been a person posted...

I agree as well. But they are good cows I am planning on removing some of them as i have my last group of 30 heifers have babies. Note every cow you have is perfect the same as i have but we have to work with what we have at the time. The only animals i sell to anyone will be off of our top...

I just looked at your cows you do have some good pictures of cows. You do have some cows with sturcture problems just as everyone else does with their cows. I never said that mine were better than anyone elses cattle. My cows work for me and my customers the same as yours do for your folks. Just...

I sell both bulls and heifers to other folks. Certain cows we will not sell calves to anyone other than the feedlot. No not every cow i have is perfect like other folks who sell cattel. I have been breeding chianina cattle since 1985 probably one of the oldest breeders in the state of Ky. I...

What about your cattle lets see them. Ya those cows are not perfect never said they were. But they get the job done. Just weaned 6 month old calves that average 650lbs off the cow. How those cows of your can we see them
