I think AI is a great way to start out without having to deal with a bull. I work for Cattle Visions and our schools are only $300. We also do custum AI, and A LOT of people out there do custom AI. If you want to give me an area, there is a chance we'd even have a dealer nearby that could get...

Mike... Were you at Bush's sale? I never thought about hollering at you that weekend. My family and I were on our way to FL for vacation and the weekend worked out JUST right...so we swung through to take a look at Bush's cattle. I wondered then if something was up, knowing they were closely...

Hey Mike...I definitely am! I love it here!! :) Not planning on leaving...unless they boot me. But I don't think that'll happen. Haha. :) I posted a message for you on the breeds board Mike!

I agree on the nutrition! If you cut back nutrition it hurts the cow as well. And if you cut back it will only cause the calf to be a couple of pounds at best, different than if you kept her nutritionally sound. Secondly, if the cow is weak from not getting enough nutrition she is much more...

Hey Mike...just wondering if you ever came up with any performance data for me on the Blanco calves. I'd sure be interested to have that here at the office, so I can show people what he's doing out there in the feild. Big news about M6 dispersing...or did you know it was coming? Have a...

Hey Mike, I agree very unusual that the Fasttracks came heavier than the 032's. We thought so too, but like I said...he's just something that doesn't mesh well for us. Some people are having a great luck with him, but we're not one of them. We've had some good Wind calves. We've got a...

Hey Guys, I swear, being in the middle of the AI season around here makes it hard to spend anytime checking message boards. :) But it's good for business, and it's a fun time! Lngvew: Sounds like a good line up for the year. We are using Smokester this year as well, and some Polled...

Glad to hear such positive comments on Rio Blanco. I can't wait to try him out. Like I said, I think he's gonna be a hot seller this year.... :) Can't wait to see how he continues to perform. Good luck! Heather :)

I am glad ABS is doing a good job for you. That is great!! Glad to know Profit is back at LT Ranch. We do quite a bit of dealing with Brent on a few of their bulls. As far as a Charolais bull with good carcass traits. I would take a look at $$ Montana Silver. I was trying to pull his...

Hey Leslie, Thanks for the post. Is ABS moving quite a bit of semen on that bull for you? Just curious. I think I've seen the ABS ad in the Journal on that bull. I have seen so many bulls, and work with so many different breeds with my job, sometimes it gets fairly confusing. Though being...

Hey Dun, I don't have any KCF Bennett 517 E153, I do have the Polled Hereford, KCF Bennett 759 H142. If you are really interested in the other, I can check it out and see if and where it's available. We get the 759 directly from Knoll Crest, I am not sure they own the bull, but they should...

Hey...it's good to see all these Missouri breeders around. I raise Charolais and we cross with some red angus. Do a majority of AI breeding, of course with my job that works out fairly well for me. Those of you in SE Missouri. I have a brother in East Prairie, he's the ag teacher there...

Hey there. Well, I am encouraged that you are wanting to breed to a Charolais bull. I guess my question is what are you gonna be breeding him to? As far as birthweight, there is a bull called Baldridge Fasttrack, he has a minus birthweight, and pretty good performance numbers. Although he...

Just wondering how many Missouri Breeders are lurking on the boards? :) I am in central Missouri! Happy Spring Breeding Season. Thanks, Heather :)

Hey Guys. I just got on this board...and was wondering how many Charolais breeders are around? :) Would love to find about you and where you are and what bulls you are using. I also work for a semen distributor, so I always like to hear what working best in other herds. Best of luck this...
