I'm a social outcast where I live, but you can count on me if I see your cows out, you're stuck, or generally need help. Many of my a-hole neighbors reciprocate. Then we go back to hating each other. Ain't it grand?

I've run horned Hereford bulls with Angus for years in central Alabama with little noticeable price difference for the red black baldies that math brings. I'm a small, commercial farm, reliant on my local stockyard. It sometimes helps to sell in lots. If no, because my calves are selling...

It's definitely possible and there are great tips here. I'd recommend seeding the prevalent indigenous grass. Around here, it's an invasive species from Mexico. No, Biden wasn't around 1,000 years ago. It's bahia and very hardy. Do you have any bad grasses on or adjacent to your property that...

I am guessing the market for beef in India might not be terribly lucrative.

Yep, they could use some technical advisors on the show from the start. I was worried how bad it would be when that 250 lb. newborn jumped up, too. I enjoy some of the rodeo stuff they show. I tell people there's a big difference in rodeoing and farming. I don't know anybody who wants to jump on...

What time is her presser at the Four Seasons?

I bought a used Gator and use it often. I bought an augered feeder that is great for range pellets, but I use it for something almost every day. It's not fancy, has someone's stickers on it and none of that matters a bit. I agree that you are likely to get more use from a utility vehicle, but...

Thank you. I was glad they sold a few within my budget. When the third one on the block went for $15,500 (highest price of the sale), I started to doubt that I would be able to afford one.

Certainly, good management is essential and without it any genetic potential will not be realized. Thanks for the input.

I have been farming for years with commercial herds and whatever bulls looked good within my budget. When I developed an interest in doing more, I read that good traits are lost when breeding for polled. My understanding is that a good cross is attractive to my buyers who want sturdy stock with...

They are. Domino/Advance. My last two were Line One as well and I was happy with their baldie babies

I think we were writing at the same time with very similar sentiments. I usually trade that way and I am quite fortunate to have neighbors who operate with the integrity you are talking about. While it's not uncommon to have someone in the catch pen who has no idea what they are doing but eager...

I haul my own to the stockyard, but recently paid $3.50 mi. from point of sale/load to my house on a few occasions and felt it was a fair trade. I usually load and unload myself, but my buddy doing the hauling will definitely jump in the chute at no extra charge. I pay him even if he is hauling...

Thanks. No, I didn't even go to the sale. I do have lineages, but I don't think they had dams on site.

They are. I choose those for the enhanced genetics. They are running on an Angus herd for what I hope are some beautiful baldies. Angus have dominant poll genetics, so horns aren't a problem. I usually get the bulls out of my catch pen ASAP when they are with cows. My catch pen is pretty solid...

Got these two from the Debter sale on Oct. 23rd Not great photos...

Picked up these two from the Debter sale Oct. 23.
