I watched most of it on RFD-TV. Those were some amazing cattle!

We planned on building one last summer but steel was so high that we got one cheaper from Sullivan's. We got enough money to buy one from selling scrap iron. We orginally wanted an aluminum chute but they cost so much we ended up with a steel one. We got the steel cadillac chute. The economy...

Thank you again. :) I'm thinking about going with Mo Town now. He has impressive EPDs and since he should cross well with SG72 and RH1. They'll be having their second calf so they should milk real well.

Thank you. :)

I added pictures too. They were taken back in September before RH1 and SG72 calved. All the PB simmentals were about of a MT x Hartblack Reward bull and 3 of them (RH1, TL1, TM83) came from Black Jet cows (Black Jet was sired by Circle S Leachman). The other one came from a CCR Cadillac cow...

The weirdest I ever heard was, "If I owned this heifer, I would add length to her neck"  (clapping)

I have a Sullivan's water filter and it works well except my cattle won't drink the water when it's still cool so I fill the buckets about an hour before I actually give them the water. Before we had the filter, we tried the kool-aid. Some of the calves little it better than others though...

The oldest cow we ever had lived to be 18 years old. She was actually the first cow my dad ever owned. She was a charolais named Snowball and a twin with another heifer. My dad bought her from my uncle before I was even born. I remember when I was in jr. high, she was the only cow older than me...

Thank you. :) I looked him up and he looks impressive. I might just have to use him. Do you think he would cross well with MT grand daughters? We've never used any relation to Dream On so far. I know some people I show against do though so it would be keeping it interesting if we stayed away...

That's amazing.  :o

Thanks, everyone. :) So both of them throw nice calves?

I'm thinking about getting some of my cattle AIed for next year and I was wondering about some simmental bulls. I've been looking at SVF/NJC Mo Better M217 and HTP SVF In Dew Time. I really like Mo Better because he looks good and has a white face and I've heard good things about In Dew Time...

I've seen a couple of people with nose rings in steers before at smaller shows and it doesn't seem to affect how they placed. I've even noticed some young kids using bull snaps in their heifers to make sure they didn't act up. I've never had any troubles with letting the halter drag to break...

Cattle are the only animals I show but I do show giant watermelons.  :D My watermelon this year was the biggest yet at 116 lbs.. but some jerk stole it on the second night after judging so not many people got to see it.  >:( lol

I'm currently going to a 4-year university for a major in animal science and I love it. I went to a small high school and I never really had too many friends and it was hard to find anyone with things in common with me. I excepted college to be the same but I was surprised at the variety of...

The horse sale barn closest here charges $30 to run the horses through. A lot of colts are selling cheaper than that so basically people are paying to get rid of their horses. We're selling our horses. We already got rid of all our mares and young ones. All we have left is our registered paint...

In our commercial herd, the first couple of years we used our current bull he only produced one bull calf and everything else was heifers. We sell our crossbreds as feeders and they sell about 10 cents cheaper than a bull/steer so we were missing our bull calves. This year bulls and heifers from...

All I do is brush my hair if I'm not going anywhere. If I'm going somewhere I put on makeup too. I always wear T-shirts and jeans (half the t-shirts I own are free ones I got from clubs in high school or from showing cattle). The only time I ever dress up is for weddings, Church, and open class...

I've seriously never traveled much. When I was in high school I went to girls state and my room mate was from northwest Missouri and I'm from southeast Missouri. She kept talking about the "union" all week and I had no idea what she was talking about but I was trying to be nice so I didn't ask...
