Ok I'm behind. When is there hereford show? I don't know if I can make it for that but I do know that our FFA Chapter has to work Aug 15-20 with the DAIRIES!!!!!  8)

I think what herefordfootball was meaning was he'll need to be prettied up for a promo picture. And I agree with him for the most part. It's hard to tell from the picture his exact strengths and weaknesses. Unless you have any SUPER calves out of him, or  have a reputation of your own I think...

There is more to the story. A country we were worried about attacking us with a nuclear bomb now listens to one of our former Presidents? While I'm glad for the reporters to finally get home with the families, I don't buy that it was all accomplished by President Clinton. I think more strings...

Did you notice much of a change in your EPDs since they added the Pan American Data? I didn't see much more than normal in mine. I really like the Imax bull and Lady Enchantment looks to be very well sprung and have a nice rib. Would love to have 50 just like her!

She's AWESOME PF !!

How about a Polled Hereford Heifer?

#1- JOIN #2- you can learn alot. Depending on your Chapter, there are numerous judging teams, projects, workshops, etc etc. That provide a great learning environment for those interested in agricultural whether they live on a farm or not. I'm pretty sure one of the 2008-2009 National Officers...

There are always extremes. Too much bone and too little bone. As with MOST areas of Beef Cattle Production, MODERATION is key. You guys need to realize that show steer competition is tough. When you have steers that are all alike in terms of muscle, design, etc etc. you have to start being nit...

I sent you a PM.

Yes knabe, This heifer will take on our goat, and I've seen her dam chase a coyote out in the pasture. The "danger" instinct is still strong.

This heifer was born March 17 and weighed 92 lbs. Her sire is a Feltons Domino 774 son and she out of probably my best cow. I've retained her half sister and sold her half brother last year as a show steer. I haven't decided whether I will keep her or try to sell her. She hasn't been clipped...

He is an above average bull, but I don't see any reason to collect him. Now if you get GREAT calves out of  next year it may be an option, but I would let him prove himself before I even considered it. I really don't see anything in him that would make him a better choice than today's top AI...

As a Hereford Breeder, I don't like him. Infact I really don't like any of the Hereford Crosses that have been promoted. Well I take that back now, I did like Big Jake some. He's got alot of muscle, lots of bone and good width, but I bet he'd give up some on practicality. I guess you could...

Congratulations. Your heifer probably has a good chance of being a FM, however if she turns out pretty good that test is not too expensive. I take it you're planning on leaving both calves on the cow? When do you wean your calves? If you only leave them on for about 4 months or so it might not...

I will never forget the memories of my great grandpa (who died this past thursday) and the Michael Jackson media coverage. He had recently broke his leg and had been going down hill, so I was staying with him often. He would look over at me and say there's gotta be something better on, its taken...

Aren't there certain tax benefits that go along with being official? I know our own family has a family business and the tax deductions are great. Anything used to enhance, promote, and grow our business is a tax write off. I don't know if that would transfer into the livestock industry, though.

Aren't they on CIM (Cattle In Motion) Auctions? I think the CIM Auctions is new, and hopefully them carrying the Hereford JR Nationals is a start to them having alot of Hereford cattle auctions this fall. If my memories right it is a $1 fee for life. And beings that their whole work has been...

I think he looks very good. Just a couple things that come to mind with seeing him would be that I'd prefer a little more bone, more outer turn to his stifle, and I'd like him wider out of his hip (which he would be if he were heavier muscled). That's really nit picking though, he has good width...
