    Ritchey Ear Tag Question?

    I recently bought some Ritchey ear tags. I was wondering will a All-flex Tagger work with them or do I need to buy a Y-Tex tagger? I tried to use my All-Flex tagger on some random tags I had not sure what brand they was but it kept bending the buttons over and wouldn’t work properly someone...

    Composite longhorn crossbreeds

    I have been crossing my full blood Longhorns with Angus, Beefmasters and Limousines the last 5 years and I have really liked the calves/heifers I have raised so far the red Limousine has done the best about taking color out for me and the calves are nice and stalky. I have not tried a Charolias...

    Limousine Herd Sires

    I personally like bigger framed cows even tho I do agree a more moderate frame cow is prolly more profitable. Me and my dad have raised commercial limousines for several years and my biggest complaint would be a few of our limousine bulls over the years have thrown some crazy calves and alot of...

    Limousine Herd Sires

    I am getting ready to purchase some Limousine semen and with the help of you guys I have narrowed down to what I think I want to use but was wondering if any of you have had any experience with the bulls. OLYMPUS TOUCH, B BAR SLATE and JIM DANDIE. They will not be used on heifers but I also...

    Best AI Limousin Bull To Use?

    I am planning on AI'ing some of my fathers commercial Limousin cows for him. I was going to see what Limousin bull you guys recommend that will have good Milk and Maternal traits for holding back replacement heifers. I will not be breeding any heifer just cows. But I don't want anything that's...

    BEST SQUEEZE CHUTE?

    The one I bought was a For-Most 375 with the model 30 Manual head gate, double slide tailgate, wheels/portable and palpation cage for $5300. The guy I bought it from sold me it by the price of his last order and said the next order would be higher. I bought the last one he had left. I believe it...

    BEST SQUEEZE CHUTE?

    Thank you for all the reply's. I don't have a large operation we currently only run 80 head that's why I'm wanting the best chute for the money but I want it to be durable and last. I really like the Arrow chutes but they are out of my price range if I remember the prices the last time I checked...

    BEST SQUEEZE CHUTE?

    First of all sorry for putting this in the Breeds Board. I thought my question fit better here than the other options if not aloud please let me no and I will delete it. I was wondering what your guys opinions are for the best squeeze chute for the money? A Palpation cage is a must and must be...

    LonghornxBeefmaster

    My original plan was not to keep the full blood longhorns. I was very happy with my BeefmasterXAngus cross cattle. I bought them cheap and my plan was to breed them to Angus, Limousine or Beefmaster bulls and basically eventually breed the longhorn out of them. Or just sell them all when the...

    LonghornxBeefmaster

    My intensions are not to improve the Beefmaster breed. I recently started raising Registered Beefmasters and I believe there is plenty of genetics out there to find what anyone would want in the breed. My dad and me have always mainly had your typical AngusxHereford cows then around 15yrs ago we...

I have a small herd of 25 Registered Longhorns. and I am planning on experimenting with breeding a few to my Beefmaster bulls for the next few years to start a Commercial herd. I have raised few half bloods out of my Grade...
