    It just seems to me that we are worried more about the appearance of the showman instead of the why we are in the ring in the first place -- cattle.

    I don't think I have ever seen a kid "cut" because he had on a short sleeved shirt (hot) or jacket (cold)...the dislike of the hats because the judge can't see their face doesn't make sense because they are worn by open showmen all the time.

    That wasn't the case at Houston...the judge didn't have a hat on and it was apparently acceptable for the showmen to have hats.

    Whew...glad I had boys! Speaking of that, what is wrong with cowboy hats in the showring? This year there was a young man in the Houston Jr. Show who showed in a cowboy hat (he placed 2nd) so my son in turn wore his as well (he got 8th out of a large class-heifer didn't walk well)...the judge...

    An AI question

    Me too Cow Pollinator...I had surgery on my left arm and so I manipulate with my right hand (I'm right handed) and breed with the left...works like a charm. I have tried the other way but I don't have the same feel with my left hand.

    Thawing Semen (Surprise)

    My husband and I were breeding some cows this past weekend by AI. We have done this for several years with success. The surprise came when I transferred a straw to the thaw bath and the straw shot out of the container about 8 feet in the air. I quickly placed it back in the thaw bath to which...

    We had one from the 1999 Champion Carload. He did well - put lots of length and muscle on the calves. We have a Moler son now that's doing a great job.

    Feeding Whole Corn Start to Finish - Any Thoughts?

    Thanks for the responses. I agree that feeding whole corn is not really the way to go. Planning to feed a custom ration 14% protein with 3% fat for 2/3 of the feeding period and then up the corn content (flaked corn) to 50% for the last 1/3.

    Need Steers

    I'm desperate -- looking for 3 (700#) steers that are angus or angusX with no ear. Need to purchase by the end of the month, but would prefer in the next week or so. Can pay market price. They don't have to be club calves just good gainers that will grade choice.

    Will steers continue to perform okay when they are moved from a feedyard environment and move them to paddock and continue a balanced ration and roughage?
