IMO they picked an outstanding person for the position !! From a family with strong Shorthorn roots, down to earth ethics and a very sharp individual !! Couldn't be happier for her and the breed.

I would get the same message if I didn't put www at the beginning. If I did put it there, then it was fine.

I've been very pleased with my HC's and Evolutions. They are seeming to milk very good, haven't had any issues with calving and for them to be easy calving the calves are not throwaways like some calving ease bulls out there sire. For what I do and try to accomplish with my herd, both of these...

Here are 2 cows and 1 bull that are dtrs and a son of Hot Commodity in pasture condition. The spotted cow is the Reserve Grand Female at the 2017 Jr Natl's and is nursing a May Hotwire heifer and the roan won the 2017 IN State Fair. The bull is triple bred calving ease with better numbers than...

The HC daughters I have seen and been involved with as cows, I've been very pleased with. As any, you can have some outliers, but as a whole I think they are doing good.

You're right. You can get a lot tied up in them, but to me the flip side is what are you going to do with them if they don't meet your minimum price ?? You take them to the yard and you sure aren't going to get $2,700 for them. To me if they are that close to average then I would be happy with a...

He was shipped about 1 1/2 years ago. Have several daughters in the herd.

You can also get it from a lot of the Irish Shorthorns. Especially if they trace back to AF Shannon Margie 027 aka "Black Nose Margie"

She was one of the better breds for sure. John Armstrong in TX bought her.

Nah, just go straight to Rip. He's the one going to take care of it anyway. The fewer people know about it the better.

Here's another calving ease sire with a pedigree to back him up. SLF Red Hot Commodity. CED 12, BW -0.1, WW 53, YW 75, MK 21, BMI 139.40 Already sired winners in his first crop and been used on heifers with great success. He is sired by Hot Commodity out of a Destiny Best cow that is by SULL...

Just to let you know, Will Lane who has been on here for a long time, lost his wife (Tamara) to cancer yesterday. Will and his family are good people and he is a good friend and someone that I became friends with through Steerplanet back in the beginning with Red and the rest of the original...

I would love to see some of the racist remarks that you are talking about ???

To me it depends a lot on how seasoned the calf is and their temperament. I've had ones that have been hauled some and are laid back enough that they drink and eat great once they get there and I wouldn't hesitate to 2 to 3 hours. I've had newbies and that are the nervous type that it seems like...

Blue Moon at J3 Cattle.

That is a kind of a loaded question in some aspects. You can have the standard answers like Myrtle Bo, Revival, Augusta Pride, Margies, Dream Girl, Dream Lady, Lucky Charm, Mona Lisa, Cumberland, Rose, Destiny Best, etc. For myself and showing my age, some of my favorites besides the ones...

Mark, here is a rear shot that I froze from a video of him walking away. So not the best.

Here is a quick pic taken today of SLF Red Hot Commodity.

I'm sure they raise good cattle for what their customers want and what they want to see in their pastures. That's why I raise the cattle that I do. I still stand by my statement that "just because they are old doesn't mean they will be good" or genetics that we want to propagate anymore. A lot...
