Lol!! Are you being serious??? I'm going to just assume you're joking! Also I'm sure your grandpa would appreciate a "grown man" knowing how to spell! Embarrassed*

While I don't have any direct experience, most people I've heard talk about it will say that this is the problem. They don't learn to respect you and for lack of a better phrase "get to comfortable" with you. I guess my question would be why are you wanting to raise him as a bull? If you bought...

While you're right Jay, its important to note that the basic fundamentals of structural correctness, natural width, and dimension don't change with respect to condition. Sure would these bulls look different with a little more condition to them? Yeah, but still here the problem is type and kind...

While I really hate to admit it, the average Angus carcass is more likely to have a higher marbling score than the average Hereford carcass. (Not saying there aren't any Herefords out there than can grade with the Angus though) To me, what's ignorant is paying more for a black hided calf and...

I don't know how many of you read the Pinzgauer Journal (OK- don't laugh at me! :help: ) but anyway there's a gentlemen who was a vet back in his day that always does a Q and A type deal and this last issue he mentioned something about a test than can be done on farm with a milk sample. Has...

That's interesting that they would use the term choice. Typically around here fancy is used. So are they guaranteeing that those cattle will grade choice on the rail?

I hope things are going better for you Jay, you're kids look like they are doing well. Are you going to rebuild your herd, or just keep a small number of cows? How dry are you guys? Back home its been really dry. We got a little bit less than half an inch when I was back this past weekend, but...

3way, that bull looks good as does the heifer. I'm glad everything is continuing to work out, its a really good thing your doing. Is the red bull in the first picture to the left the same bull from an earlier post that didn't PAP well? How is he doing?

With bulls like that, maybe the agreement should make crossbreeding mandatory!

I think that is what the purpose of this thread has turned into. Along with someone proving themself to be an epic jerk.

I guess I still don't see the longhorn head on that cow. Oh well. I think you're confusing yourself. In my book, which I will admit is not very long, there's a difference between "looking the part" in terms of phenotype and then in color. IMO breeding for colors solely is almost as dumb as...

For what its worth.... I was once given a show stick by an older friend that was completely bent all out of shape, she said that was the stick they trained with. I think we still have it somewhere.

There's no doubt there's muscle, but I don't see anything more than any heavy muscled bull (of any breed) could sire. :?

Congratulations on the new addition Bryan!

I bet they enjoy the green grass and open air! It looks like you have a group of productive looking cows.

It's hard to beat the Monopoly show calves right now. The ones I've seen have been pretty consistent and there's a reason why they are winning the shows.

Might want to check this one out too. Cheaper and will probably be more helpful in the long run. http://www.livestockjudging.com

I really wish they would do something about Social Security in all seriousness. It is not the government's responsibility to make sure you have money for your retirement. The only problem is so many people have been paying into it for so long, so they deserve to recieve that money, but I wish...

You are not planning on using him on your heifer (atleast the first time around) are you?

If you don't mind me asking, what did you change?
