Even though I do not care for TCCA. theshowbox.com has info on every sanctioned show in the State. Typically all of the nonsanctioned small shows will send flyers to your Ag Teacher.

If feeding whole corn you will waiste a lot of nutrients unless you cook it first.

She looks full of vigor. Orphaned?

As you may allready be aware, there is no way to hide them within a week. However, I would suggest as the previous poster stated that you cleanly cut them off. You may even consider feeding them back to the calf to help create a vaccine effect.

OOPS I should have said Iowa-Angus asked the question. my-bad

Iowa Hawkeyes asked about cooling rooms, not wether we work hair and shape a calf or not. If you're going to show your cattle at a fair and they allow hair, then you are a brain dead fool if you you do not work hair also. It is a competition for who has the best looking calf. If the rules allow...

I agree with Flacowman. With a heifer I like a tapered look. Wider, deeper and thicker from the rear tapering toward the front with a tight neck. As he appropriatley put it structure/soundness is the first building block that you MUST start with. You might want to go online and look at the...

Of those brands I prefer purina (fitters edge). However, in most situations I would only feed a developer to a show heifer. as opposed to a finisher. Finishers are too hot. If you are glued to those 3 mills go purina but stay away from the finisher.

37 is the best in my opinion also. POUR THE FEED TO HER! let's see what she can do.

do you have anything such as a club calf association or jackpot shows in your area? If so this is a time of year that some kids are graduating and will no longer need equipment. I would get myself to some of the shows and just ask around. We bought a number of pieces of equipnemt through the...

There is someone on the board that goes by the name of creative who has lots of different videos. He/she may have one on that. There may also may be some on your states agriculture extension website.

As far as breeding the key is not getting them to fat. You just need to feed her a good balanced growing ration and stay with it. When it is time to breed make sure that you give her the appropriate vaccinations. Always keep a good mineral supplement in front of her and make sure you worm her at...

We'd find my husband out leading him around the barns, and all these adoring girls / ladies cooing over his calf. Worked better than a baby! :cowboy: Yeah, my boys used to pull that every once in a while. my wife told me just to stay put! :banana:

Beautiful, Nice and clean fronted. I'd think she would be a bit bigger boned for a simi but beautiful nonetheless. From what I can see she is sound also. We do some composite breeding with semi's on top of or Angus herd occaisionally. What breeding is she? I miss Houston, not the traffic getting...

CONGRATS. But I'm wondering if that has a translation to US shows. Would that be like a breed superintendant maybe?

It's always nice to run into people that you know from elsewhere.

BC you sound like you may have done this before. If so please describe how it works once you get there. I've never been involved in one but it sounds quite intriging.

If they are being sold as show prospects, I would have them as close to show condition as possible. No matter where you are selling them. They sell better that way.

I agree pretty much with what everyone else has said. The more you rinse, the better the hair will be. Dont leave out trainning the hair on those legs either. I would always reccomend that everytime you rinse , put sometype of light oil or conditioner back into the coat.

This is only my OPINION not even scientific. What I'm reccomending only a low percentage of Chi. 1. It is my recollection that Chi Angus have won a large number of the carcass contests in Denver each year. 2. I Love the look of a good chiangus. 3. I know I will take a bruiser on this statement...
