Thanks for your input. I agree with you completely and im the guy who sells it!!! I actually looked into putting an LRP policy on a set of heifers that I have running on oats now. It wouldnt pay to do it because the market is just floundering around going in a straight line right now and it...

love this song, I like anything Ryan Bingham. He's a true product of West Texas. No nashville pop BS.

Have any of you actually eaten organic grass fed, no grain whatsoever beef that was certified organic? Tastes like he77, but I am also accustomed to eating fat corn fed cattle. I have another thread about freezer beef going now because I have been thinking about selling some freezer beef...

Lots of good input here, Thanks. Sounds to me like dealing with the general public has been the problem with most of you and I can completely understand that.

maybe the panhandle and western OK

First - the marbling she had, she had at birth - you did not add any when you kept her for 45 days at about $3.30 a day (your number) - most of that fat you added was likely desposited inside the body cavity and the remainder went onto her back. Yes some cattle have more genetic potential to...

We always had home raised beef when i was growing up and i have fed out some steers on my own for my family but it has always been alot of time and money invested. I have never been able to do it this cheap. My yuppie inlaws and some of their friends wanted to buy beef halves a couple years...

Read it again. I pretty much summed it all up there buddy.

A few months ago we were out of beef and I was thinking of not selling one of my heaviest calves and feeding him out and butchering him. Then I got to thinking about how long he would have to be on feed and how much the feed would cost and the 750 to 800 dollars that i was going to have to...

I have seen the two cats killing a rattler thing. We used to have two female cats that stayed out in the barn and one day when i pulled up to the house, i noticed the two cats sitting on either side of the cattle guard. When I got out of the truck i heard the unmistakeable sound of a...

Yeah, one of the four that i killed with the truck a couple years ago was a doe that decided that she just couldn't go on living any more and ran directly into the driver side door of my company truck. Cratered the entire door in and jammed it closed so that i had to crawl in and out of the...

Grill guards are a MUST HAVE around here.

[/b] You got that right. A couple of years ago someone asked me if i had killed a deer yet and I said well I got one with a rifle and four with my truck!!!!!

:tiphat: Awesome. Gave me chill bumps

When I buy babies at the sale barn, i don't normally go to all of the trouble to go get the trailer and come back. I just get one of the super looper hands at the sale barn to practice their quick tie on them and i throw em in back of the truck and haul em home.(its only 2 miles from the sale...

Season opens Saturday here, have several of my old college buddies from Tarleton coming down to hunt. Have been seeing lots of birds but they come and go with the little showers and fronts this time of year. Dove season is by far my favorite because you get to socialize and have a few adult...

Absolutely, call the lady back.

I live 2 miles from the barn. Drive by there numerous times a day. Trailer loads of cattle have been rolling in for a week now. Hauled a trailer load of calves there this morning. worked too late to be able to get my check and see how they sold. Driving by looks like there are lots of real...

A couple years ago, i hauled a heifer calf to the sale barn on my way to work one morning, on the way home, I stopped to pick up my check and the clerk said wait just a minute and came back with the manager. He said well i guess you don't have a check coming today, the heifer died :shock: They...

Had the same scenario about 2 months ago, one of our good first calf heifers with about a 250lb calf found dead under a mesquite tree with the top of the tree laying on top, hooves scattered in 4 different directions.
