    Debruycker Charolais Bulls

    I think you have a great plan that makes $ sense! I have read about the LH cow breeding back so fast after calving that you could almost have 5 calves in a 4 year span if the bull was in year round. If that was true, you could possible have an extra 4 calves out of that cow if she bred back that...

    Debruycker Charolais Bulls

    Thought about doing what you are doing myself, just wanted to see if you were getting the same numbers I was guestimating. How much additional profit do to you predict using 1/2 Char LH cows instead of LH cows since you can run a few more LH per acre and LH are cheaper replacements? From what I...

    Raisin the Bar would do well if he was the Gelbvieh half of a Balancer bull with a low BW Angus half

    Buying semen on this bull

    I have always like looking at this Gelbvieh bull for high WW. http://bullbarn.com/gelbepd.asp?ID=306 BNC P455 "Raisin the Bar": Raisin the Bar was purchased for his outcross genetics and his amazingly powerful growth. He logged an amazing 1016 pound adjusted weaning weight and a 1546 pound...

    Matt Hagan NHRA driver/cattleman

    Ashley is pregnant and is going to sit out this season and let Neff tune and drive her car. Guido is going to help Bernie Federly tune John's car since he ticked off Austin Coile who left the team and is sitting out for a year. Force will die racing a funny car, because he is as big as the sport...

    Bull auctions

    I enjoy watching the bull sales on RFDTV, but I am shocked by the prices. I regularly see bulls sell for over $10,000 and sometimes several times that. My question is how do the buyers get back that amount of money to justify those prices? I can see that kind of price if the bull is selling...

    Prices

    Congrats to all of you who sold your cattle at a nice profit after years of low prices, with high corn and no rain! You deserve every penny of it!

    Black Herefords

    I have heard that before about the few red ones outperforming the blacks. Do you think it is because the red cattle have the same good genes that the black hided have, but the red color helps in the heat using less energy which results in the red cattle turning grass & corn into more red meat?
