    A few replacement heifers

    Here’s a few pics of my replacement pen. I have my own heifers along with the group I am planning on selling as breds in fall. I really don’t know where prices are going to go in fall but I’m thinking I will need close to $3500 to feel like it was worth it. I bought most from a ranch that I...

    New Bull-EPD Questions

    Accidentally bought a horse

    I hope it doesn’t come to that but from a meet standpoint I think it’s still a reasonable buy. 500 CAD is like 350 US. And that was the minimum bid allowed.

    Accidentally bought a horse

    I think I’ve done enough damage for one day. Sure curious how my new horse is gonna turn out. What kind of issues does your horse have? Sounds like this one is something in the shoulder that bothers it from time to time
