Her bottom line leads me to believe she's got some brangus in her. She's not to clean in the sheath area. Most brahman or brangus influenced heifers show these traits. If I was going to show her I'd put her on full feed with some beet pulp added to help her abdomen bloom a little and...

My son showed a 5 month old jersey heifer calf last year at the local fair. We took her home after the Fair late on night and unloaded her in the lot. Next morning, the bull was standing in the lot with her. Didn't think much about it. Went to get her out of the heifer pasture to put with...

Looks like she may need to have gut depth developed a bit. Other than that, I'd say she's a fine heifer. Do you have a rear shot of her? I'd be interested to see her squareness across the top from a rear view.

How do you propose "leading" him to water when he's locked up with all fours? I realize that using an ATV to drag a steer isn't going to make a positive impact on him. I also know that having him lock-up in the middle of the cow pasture where I'm 100 yards or more from the nearest tree to tie...

sounds like a great idea. I"ll start on it this weekend. Thanks

Would you suggest taking the rope halter off between lessons? Or leaving it on? I've been keeping him tied for the past few days and he's only eating or drinking when he leads to the trough. He's definetely glad to see me when I get there. Only problem is, when he gets the drink finished or...

Yesterday evening, after being tied for twenty four hours, I lead the calf to water. He easily went. After he drank, I tried to get him to lead out of his pen. He very hesitantly went a few steps at a time. I got him out of the pen, hooked him to the ATV and he willingly led for about one...

I got an all chain halter with a steel nose hoop yesterday called a "big jim's breaking halter" and tried to lead him with that with absolutely no success. This critter seems to have literally lost him brain. No amount of discomfort will make him budge an inch. I'm going to try the rope...

Jovid, do you have any Redpoll heifers for sale? Where are you in OK?

The calf will actually lead a few feed from and to the feed trough in the morning and evening. I can dump the feed in the trough, grab the lead rope, and take off for a few feet in about a 12' circle back to the trough. Once he has decided he's done leading, he locks up and you need a Mack...

3 miles NW of Francis to be exact! Out near the South Canadian. How about yourself?

My daughter's show calf has been leading well now for 60 days until last week when it got pneumonia. The vet gave it some meds and it appears to be getting better and it's breathing is back to normal. It just won't lead anymore. It's a very calm calf and doesn't show any signs of being a "nut...
