    Took some pics today

    Freddy thanks, pretty excited with how SM worked on our cows, have the maternal look they are suppose to have. The Monopoly hfr is really good, just a bad picture. The TW hfr has been one of my favorites from the get go. TYD- We only weigh our purebred cattle. Guessing I would say they weighed...

    Which Is Best Simmi Bull?

    His WW and YW numbers took a jump and I believe are about the highest of any Simmental bull, for this reason with just one calf crop and no daughters in production it tends to have a negative effect on MCE Milk and CE because typically high performing growth bulls are not the most maternal...

    Simple Math calves

    We are really satisfied with our SM calves. Calves have the good front ends with some stoutness, bone, and hair. Not to extreme on any part. Only complaint is 2 of them have tight curly hair and that is never good. Only baldy calves have been out of baldy cows, no extra white which is good...

    Need Simmi bull other than Meyer or CNS that is maternal and affordable

    I would have to vote for Grandmaster right now. He seems to be very consistent siring calves that look like the one pictured in this thread. (sound, hairy, soft, and stout) We don't have our Fat Butt calves yet, but after talking to a guy today I am scared. He said they all were long gestation...

    Arby's commercial

    I guess what I was really thinking is it is sad no matter what kind of beef they are selling that they can do a better job of promoting it then we do. I understand they are trying to sell a sandwich and make money, but isn't that what we should be doing. Say what you will about the CAB but it...

    3C Mocho Breeding Suggestion

    I am sure there are plenty that will work. The one that has worked best for us is the "Olie" bull. Some Olie sons that would pry work are Superior and Upgrade. They will both put some depth into their calves, but it seems Superior is putting more front on his calves. We had one Upgrade with a...

    Arby's commercial

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gzz0wY2Vobk Here is the long version of the commercial. Maybe it isn't as good as I thought, but I guess it did it's job of making me want to eat at Arby's and order their Angus sandwich.

    Arby's commercial

    Not sure how many of you have seen the Arby's commercial with the little jingle about everyone liking Angus beef, but IMO Arby's is doing a better job of promoting our product (even if it is Angus) then we or our checkoff dollars are. If you haven't seen it, it is pretty good kind of catchy and...

    Flying B Cut Above "Fat Butt"

    We put enough expenses into embryo work semen would be the last place we are willing to take a short cut. And I would be extremely disappointed with 3 eggs. How many unfertilized did you have? I guess IMO you spent more money by not freezing the embryos you threw away. I look at it like cost of...
