haven't been able to do a thing today. Just waiting on Uncle Sam to tell me its ok to open my store and to feed the livestock.  I just can't seem to get anything accomplished without their assistance.  :(

Dry Summer isn't it? Zack  That may be the understatement of the year.

Most animals behave find on the obstacle course and I don't see a problem with doing one. Cattle load in and out of trailers every time they go to a show.  The obstacle course that I have seen was judged and timed.  The kids had to set up their animal in a marked area, load and unload from a...

There is nothing to compain about.  Great facilities. Wash Racks are second to none. They just need to learn to clean the barn at night rather than during the mornings.  Expecially on show mornings.

Just arrived back.  Facilities at Grand Island are first rate!  Wash racks are second to none.  IMO they kept the show ring too cold and the cattle were a bit more squirley than if it had been slightly warmer in the show ring.

Freddy,  the first foal with the tipped in ear.  Are both ears the same and will they stay tipped in? We had a few geldings when I was a kid that couldn't point their ears completely forward.  Great cow sense in those geldings.

I vote for new boyfriend. (lol)  Does he hold doors for you?

One of the BEST female judges we have ever shown under.  See's a good "cow" doesn't  judge on hair and color and won't use a female that looks like a steer in a breed show.

Well thought out essay and points out many of the concerns that I have had when looking at photos of cattle.  I appreciate that you have stood up and publically addressed the concerns that many in the livestock industry have had. Thank You

Maybe obesity would not be such a problem if you couldn't buy Soda Pop and Energy drinks with Food Stamps!!!!!. Not sure how Pop and Energy Drinks equate to a healthy diet in children.  But just wait,  there is an intense lobby to allow Food Stamp recipients to buy fast food with their...

I was told that they are the "cats meow".  My only hope is that there is lots of wash rack space.  White cattle take alot of washing ;D

Jr National show season is upon us.  What are the locations, dates and entry deadlines for your breed? Charolais - Grand Island Nebraska,  June 17-22.  Entry deadline is May 1.  Late entry deadline is May 10. What ever breed you show get involved. 

I will agree.  If you are under 21, go to the Jr Nationals of your breed.  You will have fun if you get involved. Charolais is in Nebraska this year.  Entry Deadline is May 1, Late entry is May 10.  I am sure others have the locations for their Jr Nationals.

Feeding anything that is high in Nitrates?

This was the ultimate of stupid cow things at our place.  This was about 20 years ago now and we quickly got rid of these feeders after this incident.  You have to look at the pdf file attached to the bottom will retry to scan as a picture

We had a pb charolais heifer calf last fall that was early and only weighted 35 lbs.  We used a sheep esophagal feeder to tube her.  She is still small for her age but looks absolutely normal otherwise.  I was thinking about going for a mini ;D I thought at the time that it was environmental...
