    T-post one, me zero

    Hard... cider. If there's any left after using it as a pain killer internally.

    Big dream coming true

    It says something about your area and concerns over calving ease compared to here in the US. You are calving 100 pound plus calves without assistance... and here many of our cows are incapable of birthing anything over 70 pounds without being pulled it seems. Personally, I believe you have much...

    Pasture Pet Peeves

    People that ignore NO TRESSPASSING signs... and then say, "Oh, I didn't think it meant ME." with a surprised look on their face.

    Is that why politicians come in second? I always thought it was because they were the bigger horses ass...

    New generation

    I had a calf that went 825 at 7 months back in the mid 1980s and at that time when I told people they looked at me like I was fibbing. Times have changed...

    1100 pounds at 7 months??? That would be a monster.

    New bull time

    Good luck with the new bull... After Big Sexy, what will this one be called?

    New bull time

    The first one looks good. Number 2 might be too, but hard to tell without a better side shot. Five cows and you're buying a bull? With that few I'd be synchronizing them and choosing 5 different AI bulls to breed them to.

    Police and military dogs are considered reliable off leash and are still never left off leash or uncontained if there isn't an authorized handler around. Females would attract unwanted attention and be unworkable when in season if they were left intact.

    Best Cattle Crosses For Unassisted Calving

    With grass like that why is your, "my stocking rate is 1000 lbs to 26.6 acres right now,"? With those kind of numbers I figured you were on sagebrush.

    Best Cattle Crosses For Unassisted Calving

    I'd have to agree that with cows having to cover so much ground to find forage that they are unlikely to acquire a worm load easily... but that assumes they aren't already full of worms. With sparce grass I'd definitely worm anything newly acquired before release.

    Pay day

    They make me sweat. I just can't see where there is any room in these prices for any kind of unanticipated risk.

    Pay day

    The sale I went to yesterday had a bunch of solid black first calf heifer pairs, February calves, and they were going up to $3600

    New bull time

    There isn't a bull there that I'd be bidding on. They're all weak in the top line and gutty and leggy and lightly muscled. Not a beef type bull in the bunch. And I'm sorry if anyone here is affiliated with the sale or the bulls being sold... but they look like animals I would cut and not expect...

    Calving 2024 Charolais

    Did you have alot of bull calves first, and then more heifers? Or the opposite? Or was it consistently mixed?

    A big shout out to my Amish neighbors

    Apparently my explanation is not clear enough? I never said they were bred to attack. They are bred to win in a conflict. Two different things. Tenacity and focus are not the same thing as aggression. I said in another post that pits are no more likely to bite than other breeds.
