Very nice, much better than the last.

HEY, BE NICE! :mad: And I like Limi cattle thank you very much! We have a few here and they wean our largest calves, and I don't mean 300lb calves, try eight, no feed! Personally, I don't think this heifer will make it in the show ring but, you never know, get her on some feed and she might...

Sorry, I feel so stupid but what is HGP mean? :oops:

What is the best implant to use on show steers? Does anyone implant heifers, pros and cons?

Angus X Limousine April 13th This is a steer we raised, I'm guessing he's about 650lb right now maybe closer to seven. Tell me what you think!

I think they start cycling as early as four months and as late as nine. However, I'm not "sure":?: We usually leave our calves out with the bull until weaning, about 7-8months. We've only had that happen once in 15yrs. I do know down at the sales barn they have a few almost every sale, (in the...

We had one heifer get bred at 4 months, it sure surprised us to find a calf in our replacement pen... At the sales barns around here, buyers won't even look at a heifer calf unless she's been preg chelked open. I guess they had too many drop calves in the feedlot. :roll:

So what's more correct? Arm extended or bent, feet together or not?

How do I post a picture?

He's much better than the black one! I'd like some more depth on him but other than that he looks pretty good. Finished well I think you'll be happy with the outcome. Good Luck! ;-)

First, I'm not an Angus person, (100% Hereford). I know a bit about Angus because my dad runs an Angus heard so I'll give you my opinion, take what you want leave the rest. ;-) #1 This heifer has a good amount of eye appeal. She appears straight and correct. Her top-line is very nice, she’s...

Does anyone know of a book on feeding and back grounding cattle? Something like Feeds And Feeding by Morrison but more up-to-date.

Ok, thanks!

Yeah another question- How should I fit for Showmanship? I’ve had a few people tell me, "Leave the legs alone, just comb them and spray a little sheen in the hair." They said if you polish the calf up, (like showing in a breeding class) it distracts the judge. Now in horses the judge looks at...

Ok, so what if the judge walks around to the showman's side, should I change the profile? Or do I always keep it like the picture no matter where the judge is?
