    Welcome Buttercup

    Bishop I'd wish every mom and dad would get their child a calf they thought had a chance at winning the state fair. To do otherwise is a waste of time and money and not fair to the child. As for busting someone's bubble...I think everybody appreciates a straight forward assessment of an animal...

    Angus. I don't get this...........

    Breeding for insect resistance?

    I have fullblood brahman cattle that grow fairly thick hair in the winter too.Kniting sweaters for cattle north of college station is just a ridiculous statement.Funny how some cattle farmers have it figured out.Others not so much.Get some 1/4 blood brangus or braford.If you dont want no part of...
