Do you think this is totaled or not. They are saying the lady who hit me was going about 65, and she never braked. I guess they said my two driver side wheels when off the ground about 3 feet and came back down. We will find out tomorrow hopefully if it is totaled or not. What do you think...

by Tom Granzow was interesting. Concerning efficiency, in Kansas feedlot, ADG for Hereford steers was 3.59, yard average was 3.29. (I was frankly a little disappointed in such a low average for the Herefords, as most other studies I've been familiar with had them better than that.) Feed...

I've never had more calls than I have this year from prospective bull customers. Most of the time, I haven't had the age they were looking for etc, but have done my best to help them find what they were wanting. In three weeks, I have located only two breeders with Polled Hereford bulls at least...

I read a letter to the editor of Hereford America recently, from a seasoned cattleman who said that the later in the spring calving season a calf is born, the heavier it tends to be because of available forage/nutrition. I have observed this to be true. Exhibit A; fourth calf cow had her...

If you had the opportunity to judge cattle what would you be looking for? Maybe this goes under the show boards, but I would like to have an idea on what you would look for in the different breeds? G.W. Wife

Where do most of you order your seed? Do you just buy it from the store or do you order from a catalog. I get mine from Henery fields, but i have not ordered yet, I guess i need to do that if I am going to plant this year. GW Wife

With all the recent debate over Brahman influence and its negative impact on beef quality, I have questioned whether any Brahman breeders are working on their carcass quality. If so, are they making progress, or is it possible?

One of our boys is wanting to show a heifer calf in a few months. Does any one know of a good source where we can buy euipment used and not to high priced. Where would I go to look for something like this. We have shown before in the past, but it has been several years ago and only for about...

My brother subscribes to Farm Talk magazine, and said some breeder from Kansas named Steve Fury is advertising 1/4 Jersey, 1/4 Hereford, 1/2 Angus heifers as replacement heifers. They were developed using registered stock of the parent breeds. I believe this is a Hereford breeder. I know my...

The Mark Donald Alliance is having a private treaty complete dispersal of all the MDA females. (509)234-4361 bbcattle.com For those who don't know, these are line-bred Mark Donald bloodline Herefords.

I got to take a look at a couple of recent pictures of Golden Achiever and Feltons Legend 242 today. I especially liked 242 as a mature bull. What do you Hereford folks who've seen them think? I don't plan to use either one of them, just like to admire 'em.

Contained within my AHA account bill today, I noticed some interesting information. Now Frankie, I know this is small potatoes compared to the numbers in Angus programs, but I feel it is significant. "46 million pounds of CHB product, 1050 truck loads of boxed beef, representing close to...

I have seen something today that I have never seen before in my life! Gas has reached a all time high at 2.83 a gallon today. I don't know what to do. We might have to both start riding motorcycles to work or something. Slight problem 3 children. Any suggestions? Greenwillows Wife

Here's a 17 month old bull by Day Rupert Tone 092 out of a Boyd Victor 6090 daughter owned by my brother.

"Hereford Verified is about more than product traceability. The program provides the market information and premiums without the risk of owning cattle through harvest." -Craig Huffhines. Any opinions from anyone who has read and/or studied this program?

Recently visited with a rancher who had several acres of this planted in several pastures. He had an electric fence around it, I suppose to keep the cattle out of it until it got grown to a certain point. Opinions please.

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, When the road you're trudging seems all up hill, When the funds are low and debts are high And you want to smile, but you have to sigh, When care is pressing you down a bit, Rest, if you must-but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and...

Congratulations! Enjoy your posts.

(And anyone else who wants to answer) There are a number of Hereford ranches in Kansas. Several of them seem to be highly regarded in AHA circles. Some of them have some impressive data. I want to submit a few of them to you for evaluation since you live in the state. I'd like to know if you...

Hopefully I spelled that right. Have any of you ever been frog gigging before. We went to Mo. this past weekend and we all got to go. This was really pretty fun. Not quit what I expected. We will be going again when it gets dark outside. The first time I have ever ate frog legs was...
