There are a number of theories on virgin heifers and I'm no expert, but here are some of my thoughts: On the up side, flushing a heifer is the most productive time in the life of a cow so if you decide to go that route you should have a productive chance at having a good flush. We have not ever...

Are you still selling these, if so can you post or email pictures.  Thanks

I'm a little late here, but what the heck.  We have this same problem in Kansas, we are not allowed to brace or touch the goat other than to set the feet yet when you get to a major show they are all full brace shows just like sheep.  The look of a goat drastically changes some for the good some...

I hadn't been on in a long time! This is very cool!  The Reserve Natural lamb is my son Grady, thanks for posting. 

Agree with Till-Hill, as long as you have them up where you can watch them you will be fine, may need a little tlc but as long as your calf is eating you are ok to wean.

We fell into that catagory this year at Maine Jr. Nationals, because we had a May that had a calf at side (which she should have had) she showed in her May class with her calf.

The group listed above plus Todd Caldwell, Bobby May, Kirk Stierwalt-  Pretty much anyone can find you a good one for high dollar, the trick is, who can find you the best place to find calves that will win on a budget! Buck and Bushy Park would be more geared to heifers I assume you are looking...

I can't speak for anyone else, but I know in ours (Logan does smile in most of them) we pick out the best picture of the animal, you will normally have 3 to 5 pics to select from and your looking at ears and tilt of the head and small things that will make a difference in how the promotional...

The judge was paid to speak, obviously someone valued his opinion, when was the last time someone paid for yours, that would make you a cattle expert like OH.

Is the national Hereford show live?  It wouldn't be quite the same but it would at least give you the idea of what you need to do.

I apologize GONEWEST for my comment, I didn't realize deadening a tail was animal abuse, just stating a fact, that is the only thing I have ever seen it used for.  I guess I have never seen anyone that gave one everclear to change behaviour, Ace and Thorazine work just fine why would you use...

Sad by true!

Logan won 2 of your lamps for division winners, he was SO excited!

Nice calf!

I guess I wasn't specifically saying look in Texas, a flood of the market will drop prices everywhere.  If you are wanting to look in TX I would get ahold of JoeBoy or Chambero folks like that that have been around a long time down there and are honest and will know what you're looking for.

Have to agree, if your kids aren't looking to show right now there is no decision to make, the only thing I would change is I would not buy a bred heifer, I would buy a bred cow.  I guess where I would do it a little different I would look for an older cow with a proven record or a recip...

All cattle grow in spurts, I would be careful about wanting to stunt his growth too much at this point, this may just be an ugly growth spurt.  No one that answered your question knows the breeding on your calf, he may not have the genetics to be deep bodied, he is only 8 months old and at this...

I thought everclear was to deaden the tail, learn something new every day.  See you can teach an old dog new tricks, although I don't think I'll be getting one drunk to get into the ring there are too many tried and try help aids for that. (clapping)

Do a search on here, there are new scales out there that can be bought for used prices, can't remember the brand names but people seemed to have good luck with them and they were really reasonable.

Really nice cow!
