    Why Dont Show Heifers Dont Make Good Cows?

    Your question is a very common myth among various people. Ex-show heifers can and DO make good cows. Simply feeding grain to cattle doesn't ruin their genetic potential. Often times the problems arise if the heifer gets too fat or she is quickly taken off her grain diet and expected to...

    Polled Heifer Not So Polled

    The American Hereford Association registers both Polled and Horned cattle, but notes the difference on the registration paper. Depending on the size of the show, sometimes there is a separate class for the Polled and Horned division - sometimes not. I think most Association sponsored shows are...

    Any calves out of Trauschs Hereford Bull Cyrus?

    Hey Chris, hope everything has been going well for you! I saw a Cyrus calf out of an angus x cow earlier this spring. He really was a nice calf, and cyrus definitely improved the cow. I liked cyrus in his picture and video, and that calf sure is a dandy in the picture. Are you thinking of...

    ***ASK BRAD HOOK A QUESTION THREAD***

    Brad what's your opinion on certain AI Sires more or less "falling apart" as they get older? Do you think more emphasis should be put on  longevity? Why do you think there are not as many mature pictures out there?

    Wanted to buy: Open Recips Or Cow-Calf Pairs

    I'm pretty sure there is a guy pretty close to the IN/IL border that raises recips and implants them there and then you can pick up the ones that stuck. He may sell recips too. His website is on show steers, I'll see if I can find it later.

    FFA speech Topics

    URGENT Action needed by planeteers

    I think if this health care bill gets passed, or even deemed and passed, you will start to see more of this. If the government is paying for your health care, they will regulate what you eat, drink, become exposed to, etc etc, all in the name of making you healthier so you won't be as much of a...

    vaccinating

    How many people actually use the pinkeye vaccines? Our vet recommends it, but the year we did use it we had a case of pinkeye. We haven't used it the last few years and instead focus more on fly control and have been fine. It seems to me some people swear by it and others wouldn't even think...
