    What do you feed? Do you use a feed cooker or not?

    We had a steer we needed to push harder this year so we put about 3 #s of corn in a slow roaster with a equal amount of water at low temp and let it cook between feedings. Steer really loved it! Not only did he eat more at each feeding, he really put on some finish in a hurry. We just added it...

    Sorry but it is a crime is still a crime if you are caught or not. The only difference is if caught there may be a penalty or consequence involved. Even with that, crimes committed without being caught can cause damage to ones soul. How do you tell the difference between right and wrong? How do...

    What do you have coming?

    We have 6 coming all heat synced and AI bred on the same day. Had the vet "arm" them a couple weeks ago and all are pregnant. He estimated then at that time from 62 days to 48 days even though all were bred the same time. 2 Strictly Busines 1 Radioactive 1 Sin City 1 Paddy O Mally 1 Sunseeker DLZ

    politics

    A livestock show is a competition and as such there are always winners and not winners. There are two reasons IMO that one enters a competition, either to win of for the "love of the game". I would say most people who enter have some combination of both of these reasons with varying degrees of...

    Labor day road trip to look at calves

    We are planning a trip down to Indiana from Michigan on Labor Day. We will be traveling down I-69 to visit some farms east of Indianapolis. Was wondering if any of you knew of some other places to stop and see while we are down that way? We might be coming home up I-65 so that would be an option...

    what would you do after sale?

    In my opinion, unless some sort of guarantee was offered at the time of the sale, the seller is not responsible for the purchased animal after the sale. Many things could have caused the heifer it lose the calf and die herself that are not under the sellers control. That being said, I think it...

    Son's County fair steer

    OK; took a couple more pics of the steer today. I think I got him at a better perspective that the first one. Do you think I need to shorten the tail a little more or leave it like it is? The second pic in the original post is the same calf last fall shortly after we purchased him. Sorry for...

    favorite college football team prediction

    Big MSU Spartans fan but I think we are still a year or two away from playing with the big dogs in the big ten. Will be interesting to see what Rodriquez can do in Ann Arbor this year. From what I read in the papers, he have made a lot of changes to the way practices are ran and can be a bit...
