Warren, check your protein content facts.

And Senepol. And Limousine.

Chevy, what does your pencil say about buying bred cows versus bred heifers?

Was the cow that moved up two months running with a bull before 85 days after she calved last year?

gcreek, could you estimate a frame score and weight at weaning time for the cows you showed. Love their capacity!

coachg, rode with a really good cattleman several years ago who ran tiger stripes exclusively. His only complaint was that they tend to milk too heavily, blow out udders earlier than they should. How old is she?

Warren, average about 700 coming off grazing, average 500 going on, after pre-conditioning. We drill into permanent summer pastures, so we are later than prepared seedbed guys getting on grass, so fewer grazing days, and less total gain on grass. We have a very wide range in weights, due to our...

Y’all get back on track and give me some advice!!!

Thanks for the responses. Kenny, we are using the Charolais now because of their terminal possibilities. I can see not getting a growth differential up to weaning, your selling point. As you said, enough extra pounds will beat that black hide premium! Jeanne, agree with you you 100% on...

I am grazing these calves through yearling. Any thoughts on possible differences there?

Thanks, Kenny. That’s the kind of information I was looking for. Were they straight Simmental?

Thanks for the responses. I know where the bulls are. What I want to know is whether black Simmental TERMINAL bulls can compete with Charolais TERMINAL bulls for frame, growth and muscling in my 15 month old yearlings coming off ryegrass. I know that there is a price differential for same...

Got to agree with gcreek here. Capacity.

Various breeds, sale barn cows. All bred Charolais.

I help with a 300 cow herd in Central Alabama. We are a terminal herd, all calves are stockered on ryegrass through the spring. We buy-in sale barn replacement cows each fall, bred to our March 1 calving season. These cows are bred to unknown bulls, but the main herd is bred Charolais. The herd...

I have long believed that what we DON’T know about minerals and their interactions with our cattle is more than what we DO know. This thread proves that. There have been several very good, if controversial, posts. The folks that have studied this can tell us the requirements of every vitamin and...

simme, I asked the same question a while back. No responses! Excellent advice!

simme, I asked the same question a while back. No responses! Excellent advice!

simme just did that. Still some discrepancies!

Look up the Missouri frame score chart. See if that helps.
