    What breed of dogs do you own?

    My cow dog and my Mom's dog.  Darby and Scooter are quite a team.  Scooter is a "cavashon"; a Bichon Frise X King Charles Cavalier.  Not much of a cow dog but long on adorable.  Darby loves to help bring cows in but mostly spends time loving on the calves and helping in the wash room.  He has a...

    name tags

    Hmm, might be expensive to set up individual hats for everyone too.

    name tags

    Good idea but a lot of us "girls" don't like to wear hats.  Could offer both options.

    name tags

    I know that we have a lot of creative people on here so here's a challenge.  I was thinking that it would be great to have S.P. name badges for our Planet-eers to wear at funtions so that we will recognize each other and maybe encourage others to join. I think the buttons need to be good sized...

    New pics & a texas style hair cut

    I LOVE that calf! Hair cut aside he is nice!  Of course I would have carved out an outline of the great state of Texas!  That would just look hot on his hip!  LOL!  You are inspiring me for a new Darby cut.

    I Am Legend

    Well, I know this isn't a fair example but we had our first I Am Legend calf.  It is a heifer out of a Specialist cow. I have never had much desire to use unproven bulls but really liked that bull in Denver last year.  I bought a few straws to use and ended up keeping this old Specialist cow in...

    ohio beef expo

    We are going to take a Gigolo Joe display for the trade show.  It's our first time in Ohio and we are really looking forward to meeting everyone.  I plan to have my coffee maker along and my coffee condiments (raspberry, vanilla, carmel and Kahlua flavor). I used to be able to find raspberry...

    How to correct a steer that charges

    Well, that is a bad problem.  It has a lot to do with dominance and fear/defense.  You have to get control of the situation immediately or this will only become worse.  I would recommend getting a halter on him in a small pen.  Then try to make him do it again when you are trying to take ahold...

    Umm......

    Really?  Hmm, so we are going to pass judgment based on a speech quirk?  I guess that I have to hand it to anybody that can stand up in front of MILLIONS of people and talk without prepaired speech.  That takes some nerve and skill.  I guess I find it difficult to laugh at somebody with that...

    Horse slaughter information needed

    I know that we touched on this months ago but I am trying to find some good informational material that I can share with my daughter for a project.  We watched a show the other night about carriage horses in NYC that was very slanted by PITA and the ASPCA. I agreed with much but the overall...

    Gigolo Joe vs Tyson

    Jill: Taking the little fall calf that is pictured here.  Oh yeah, and Brad.  I need somebody to lean on the shovel! Red:  You must mean Nelson 26T2, our Contender son. Wish I was taking some 26T2 calves. I only kept four cows that were bred to him.  So far we have one on the ground and I have...

    Gigolo Joe vs Tyson

    We have had calls asking if we would have our semen tank along with us at the Ohio Expo.  YES!  Bring your tanks along. We will be offering incredible Gigolo Joe caps when you purchase your semen for this year.  If you don't have a tank you can place your order with us at that time.  It is our...

    Gigolo Joe vs Tyson

    Yes, definitely having the annual sale!  I hope that we won't have to limit calves that we take on consignment. We have had a lot of calls.  The picture of the Joe calf that Justme posted was just taken with my cheesy cell phone so not the best picture.  He was a fall calf out of a first calf...

    I happen to know for a fact that Gidget is NOT 29 again!  She is officially an old fart!  HAPPY BIRTHDAY GIDGET!!!  Best of luck at the beef expo...I am "brewing" up your birthday present to give you at the expo.  You can't share with Mucho!

    give us some triva about yourself

    I was born on Leap Year so I am ... really really young! I was right handed for the first 27 years of my life.  Now I'm a lefty. I fell in love with my current husband the first time I saw him.  I was nine. My eyes are about three different colors which my mother tried to convince me was due to...

    Chairs?

    We have gone through a lot of chairs over the year. I am not sure what the anwer is but when space is an issue I would opt for something that stacks or folds.  We bought a few of the heavy plastic Adirondak style chairs a few years ago and they actually lasted better than the other styles that...

    suggestions- mouse in the house!

    I am sorry. I can't resist.  I have pent up mouse anxieties.  Try crossing a house mouse "situation" with an 18-year-old daughter that is a self proclaimed mouse rights activist and sticky traps.  Each one alone spells nothing but trouble but then throw them all together and you have a full time...

    What do you call this....

    I CAN!  One try, with ease!!  I circle, unhook the "damn thing", grab the tongue and give her a push.  Much easier when the damn thing is MTY though!  LOL!!!  FYI:  That rack looks like it's n.b.u (never been used).  Hope the proud owner/refinisher remembered to put the "chains" back on...

    Liveauction.tv

    When we chose to use this route for our sale we were not aware of the charge or that may have made a difference in our decision.  We do not receive ANY of the "fees" that are charged. They did agree to refund the fee to anyone who purchased something online.  Although I may not agree with the...
