    Show Bloom vs. Sure Champ

    IMO, they really aren't comparable. Sure Champ is great for keeping them balanced on vitamins and minerals and helps to keep them on feed. Show Bloom is best described as the old trusted product to give them bloom. We use Sure Champ on everything in the barn and in the creep feeder.

    Heifer that wont eat

    Just wondering out loud here, but why would you have a heifer that is Max 3 months old on full feed? Maybe you meant an '11? If so, this heat has Bern taking it right out of them. They don't like it a bit, and I can't say I blame them. Just try to keep her on feed of this is the case. Also...

    How about Eye Candy. He seems to consistently bring cattle down a notch in frame without sacrificing bone.

    Going rate for beef?

    I sold 2 fats (averaged 1290) from a county fair that we kept an extra month for $1.30. This was based off of market a month ago plus $.05/pound.

    Judging ?

    Your key word is market. Why would it be any different from that of a market steer? Last time I checked a market class was a market class.

    Heatwave 5 Heifer

    That is the first time I have ever heard of agriculture being thought of that way. Well then I would suggest that you wake up and look at what Congress has done, and what HSUS presents the family farm as doing. People, you can only turn a blind eye for so long before we are going to have a much...

    Heatwave 5 Heifer

    [/b] And here is one of the biggest reasons that agriculture is looked upon by most of society as a bunch of dumba** hicks that don't know how to do anything else besides ride around the farm and drink cold beer. Have some respect for yourself and the industry you are representing. That starts...

    Judging ?

    Depends on the calf. I think a lot of people get caught up.on this weight thing when really the main concern should be to get them finished and filled out. The weight isjust a number that correlates to a certain size animal being "done". With that said, he would probably like a 51" steer...

    Don't worry, I'm not. However, with that said, I think it is important to encourage young people to ask questions, but as I have grown up in the industry, I have found that sitting back and listening (or in this case watching), will get you the answers that you want in a way that comes across...

    Should I hold?

    Shrink is a common term which refers to taking a calf off of feed and water to lower their weight prior to weigh in. It must be done carefully, especially in the summer, and the key is to gradually build them back up to normal intake after weigh in.

    2012 Fair picks

    Brigham Stewart is who that is. I agree, he is consistent, and he can talk a set of cattle for what they are without a doubt.

    I have never seen one poster ask the same question on here as much as you have. Instead of asking it every time, why don't you try reading some of the post and get your answers this way. If he is adding power, people will comment.

    Heatwave 5 Heifer

    I'm going to agree with CAB here, the grammar is horrible as well as the spelling. I'm part of the younger generation, but there is something called presenting yourself as professional in everything that you do, these postings included. It would really help if you could work on this. As far as...
