Dexamethasone or cortisone Dex or dextrose for quick acting energy I think these are the two kinds of Dex people refer to and I read posts for years before figuring it out.  Not sure if I did yet though.  Many helpful people on this board will correct me though I think/hope :) Good post by...

Thanks, found the info!

Looking at a sale catalog for some red angus cattle and a comment on one is "would have been in the donor pen if not MAC".  What does that mean?

County fair must have went ok with the judge?  :)  Congrats.

Just like us, diet and exercise.

Speaking of Meat Loaf : Paradise by the dashboard light!

Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen He stopped loving her today by George Jones You never even called me by my name by David Allan Coe This is just like a cattle show.  One man's opinion!  :)

CAB not sure getting the situation changed in MN will happen.  With our present system the barns are full.  I think, I don't know, that may be the reason for the allocation system.  At the MN state fair the first 4 days are all 4-H livestock.  The middle 4 days are open class dairy, goats...

Wrangler jeans, Justin boots, and a Stetson hat are worn to work, church, weddings, funerals, shopping, and dates. You have no problem saying at the dinner table, "ole (insert name of favorite steer) sure tastes good!" Your cattle eat a more balanced diet than the average American citizen...

I agree with Sassy, if you have to ask, he should be a steer.  Look at any stud book.  There are some awesome looking bulls that get little to no use annually for whatever reason.  How many promo bulls disappear in a year?  These are phenotypically very good bulls, and maybe should be used more...

If I understand what Jason is saying is your bid is raised to your proxy max or the reserve, whichever is lower.  If your proxy max meets the reserve, it goes to the reserve.  If your proxy max is less than the reserve, your bid goes to your proxy max.

Ryan, I agree they should be charged with cruelty and neglect, but my grandmother never bought a dog in her life, but she cared for over a dozen that just showed up at her farm.  Can't catch them so can't stop them.  I see this issue as a notch in peta and hsus bedpost, as well as no tallow in...

Another area where others know what is best for us because we don't.  Horse slaughter is necessary because without it, there is no way to humanely get rid of an animal that is no longer wanted and no one else wants to buy.  Why is that so hard to accept?  Many people are pro choice, many are pro...

We have used them, like them a lot except when the calves pry them off.  We maybe left them in too long, but overall we like them.
