    Grizzly

    Nice calf. I have liked some of heifers and breds Ive seen from Grizzly.  I stopped at Nichols on the way to the state fair and looked at Grizzly himself outside walking around and thought it was ok I had a little heifer semen on him.... Good luck with the calf. Mark

    Glad to hear all is well.

    My two cents.

    I'mthinking your giving up way too fast.  I don't want to spend money you don't have, any Cates genetics you could buy 5 sraws of?  If so what would you pick?  Excluding those that are syndicated.....

    should we call the vet?

    I agree with frostback, that she should be ok for a while by the numbers you gave us, but if you want to have the vet out.  Have the vet out.  If he/she giggles at you a little for being worried, no big deal, that way you know you've done your part.

    Fall Club Calf Sale Season

    I am thinking the same as the rest of you.  After last fall/winter when any cow no matter how old or broken mouthed was sky high, the lack of feed should lower prices for a while. But  when feed returns, or if the late rains in Iowa and south provide more feed look out, up we go!  When...

    My two cents.

    Sounds like a little therapy.  Allow your self to dream. What is the first step towards that dream your going to take? Mark

    Mr. Firewater calves

    The date on the origional post was a couple months ago, so I assume the process is over and we need to wait and see how it turned out. I like the bull but am suprised people would use him on heifers, wow! TR Mr Fire Water 5792 Mark

    I80 heifer

    Hey she looks good. I don't know what your plans are for her, but I see her as a beautiful bred heifer in a year or so.... I think I80's will be valuable no matter what the age.. Mark

    Torn ACL

    That is too bad on this heifer, by the sound of it she would have been fun to have a young person show.

    Torn ACL

    My first thought is if she spooked enough to jump the wall, is she show material? I don't know what happened.  I am sure there is a lot of disappointment/worry involved, I hope it works out for you. I haven't had a calf with a torn ACL so it will be interesting to hear suggestions.  From my...

    Cloud 9

    I'm with you, I remember breeder style shorthorns there when my Soon and I attended the sale, but don't remember this cow as that tall. I do remember the wind....Thought we might all blow away, I think they only lost one big tree branch on a brand new truck, but inside the shed it sounded like...

    Bluing shampoo stained my calf purple today!

    I like using a foamer, especially with the purple soap.  I also like liquid/gell oxi clean for those white ones, to help whiten those dingy spots/cows... It always seems the white and red neck roans with tons of white are the "pigs" that like to lay in the "Mud".  The black ones usually sit on...

    Anyone fed barley straw before?

    I had not heard of that before, so I googled it.  A number of research papers came up, it appears to be something that researchers have tried.  Interesting. HOWEVER, as an Iowa farmer who applies anhydrous every year, I feel the need to warn you NH3 is DANGEROUS, NASTY,STUFF.  The directions I...

    That looks like a very nice beef bull.  Keep up the good work!
