    What's on the ground so far?

    Her BW was an even 85 lbs. As far as the Hot Commodity's go, I don't that I've had one over 85 yet. Most of them have been upper 70's to low 80's. Fact is, the first one that we had born was like 74 lbs and I thought "crap I have screwed up". About 3 weeks later that sucker turned the wick up...

    Castrating a 12 month old bull calf for beef

    I guess everyone's opinion is different on going by the sign. My sign is whenever I have the time or the help to do it. I've done plenty of 1,200 to 1,400 pound bulls(and some bigger) over the years by banding them and haven't lost a one. I give a shot of tetanus toxoid, wait a week then band...

    What's on the ground so far?

    Medium rare, yea I know a little on the Lily.  Everybody that I've talked to are really pleased with their Lily daughters. The Asset cross worked real well on her. You have some interesting genetics in that Super Flag calf and the 18th heifer. That 18th heifer is bred like I like them. Keep me...

    Castrating a 12 month old bull calf for beef

    I'm like CAB. I have a neighbor that raises Hereford's. Sells about 14 head a year for custom beef. Doesn't castrate any of them. I have banded 12 -14 month bulls a lot for freezer beef with no difference.

    Shorthorn Bulls

    Mark, Did you notice his BMI number? It is 150.80. I don't know that I have ever seen one that high. The 1/2 Lincoln Red bull we are using is sure doing a good job for us and definite calving ease.

    Stacking pedigrees to produce a Herd of Shorthorn specializing in show heifers?

    I really like the Hot Commodity's. They come easy and really grow. The daughters are turning into good momma cows. The first picture is a H.C. 2 year old out of a 1st calf heifer. The 2nd picture is a full brother to the heifer and was the cow's 2nd calf. They H.C.'s really do their share of...
