no no no I am staying in it I am buying another brangus heifer now and in the fall I will be looking for a Simmental. These heifers are only $3,000 a pop. I will have more to spend on a Simmental in the fall.

JMO...any animal that has any "obvious" faults to the average cattle person is not worth even close to $3,000...sorry. An animal should "look very good" to the cattle person (leave the minor faults to find by the Judge). Of course, "show animals" often don't look like the quality pasture animal either....
 
You have a pretty good set of melons there kid. A lot of the folk you are now asking for help, you have all but called stupid or degraded at one time or another in your short but annoying visit here.

Texan pointed out to all of us the error of your ways not too long ago, yet you still don't get the point.

Cut us down, then ask you help? Seems almost like biteing the hand that feeds you don't it?
Your reply here will help to dictate just how much you get from me (us) in the future.

Tone down your posts a little (although maybe too late), ask politely, and sit back and listen for a good long while and maybe I(we) might think about helping you out.

If you were my kid, I'da done wacked you with a willow twig that you fetched, the first 2 days you were on these forums. And I wouldn't have stoped at one wack either.

You shouldn't have burnt the bridges that you evidentally need or want to cross now.

As usual you said it as well as it could be said by anyone. Maybe the kid will study it long and hard.
 
3,000 sounds really steep IMO for a show heifer. Thats usually the sale average for bulls at these production sales. I can see paying that for a bull or even a good cow.

Why don't you post some pics of these awesome cattle you talk about?
This sounds like a good idea to me. Little Mr SCfarms could you tell us of which major shows that you have been showing in. And please post some pics of your awsome show winning cattle along with which show it has won.
 
I keep trying to get pics up but it won't let. We won Houston in 2004 that is really the biggest show we won but I can e-mail some pics to people who want to see some of my cattle.

Little Mr SCfarms, if it wasn't with brangus that you won Houston with maybe it was with something else. Please enlighten us with which of the other 17 breeds that you have shown, did win houston for you.
 
Brangus Bull in Houston 2004 Terry Faul and Dale Clark own the bull. The girl that showed it for us was Megan Faul: Terry Faul's daughter check again a$$. Semen for sale on this bull at $25 a straw. Oh and by the way I really didn't show 17 I show brangus my cousin's show Brahman's Herefords and Brafords.
