    Feed wagon with head catch

    Did you use it for any shots? Seems like you could vaccinate or synchronize a large number pretty quick.

    Feed wagon with head catch

    How did that work? I've thought about it. Seems it would be much easier than running them through the pens. Apache makes one that looks like it would work well, but they are pretty pricey.

    Forage test result

    Where did you send your sample to be tested? Looks like pretty decent hay.

    Steel Prices

    If you happen to come up with 2 sets, let me know. I'm just down the road in Chipley and we haven't been able to find any either.

    Weight for breeding heifers

    Read your feeding program for grown cows on the protein tub thread. Do you mind to elaborate on your heifer development program? Do you just feed them higher quality hay, or do they get additional supplement?

    Barn design assistance...

    Nice bull calf and nice cattle in general. I figured they were from OK Jeanne's herd. Always has exceptional cows.

    Murray Grey bulls

    Thanks for the replies CP and steve. It's funny you mention the size of the gene pool as an advantage and disadvantage. Last year we used all natural service with these 3 bulls and one other. Prior to that we used AI for several seasons. I did a pretty thorough search for available sires and...
