She looks like a very balanced and fault free heifer to me. You should have fun with her!

I had one calve at 15 months old a few years ago. She shouldn't have been bred and we didn't realize that she was until she started bagging down. We watched her very closely and let her have it. She needed help because she was so small but it didn't turn out to be the trainwreck that I had...

I appreciate the comments! Training wise he's coming along nicely; you sure can't beat his attitude. We have a few jackpots around home in March so hopefully calving will be going well and the weather will be nice so I can sneak away to one or two. I'll keep you posted!

Definitely ring him, and do it as soon as possible to give it some time to heal. It's one of those things that you won't use very often but when he decides to try fight another bull or jump a heifer you'll be thankful that you have it.  It doesn't matter how quiet he is, he's still a bull. I'd...

I don't usually do the whole steer thing but some friends had this guy for sale and the price was right so I decided to try and have some fun with him. He was born mid February and our target show will be the Canadian Hereford Junior Nationals at the beginning of August. I hope to jackpot him at...

Here's a picture.

Very nice cattle Firesweep! To me they look like the type that will not only show well but also go on to make really useful animals!

I agree with obie105 that Facebook groups are a great way to sell cattle. This spring I posted a picture of a heifer on one of our local groups and I managed to sell her and another heifer in four hours. It doesn't always work out that good but when it does it's worth it! Good pictures are a...

Interesting post! It's funny that you say that the cow doing all the damage is a very gentle cow because I have two super quiet, halter broke Hereford cows that are the same way with dogs. Our cows are calved out on some land that borders a nearby Indian Reserve and occasionally wild dogs come...

Very nice heifers. They all look really easy keeping while still being extremely showy and a lot of times it's hard to find that balance. I like the picture of their sire that you posted as well.

Very nice heifer, she sure looks thick in that middle baby picture!! Good luck with the sale.

I remember really liking the picture of the red heifer when you posted it last year. That mating sure worked out for you, her heifer calf looks great!

This is a good question, I look forward to seeing more replies. I have a small herd of Polled Hereford cattle and I love them. To me the docility is one of their best traits. They're good for kids to be around and they give young showmen a real sense of confidence. I don't know if it's a proven...

They look great, that pair should do very well for you this fall!

I really appreciate the positive comments! Thanks for your comment Mark. We are located in North Eastern Alberta. If you're ever in the area stop in for a visit. I grew up being taught that cattle should work for you, not you for them and I'm happy that I learned that from a young age- it sure...

It's been three years since I posted this and I have nothing better to do so I thought that I'd post a little update today. I'm very grateful that nothing but good has come from raising and selling this bull. Since this post: -You Tube was named the Reserve Champion Senior Yearling Bull at...
