I have not been on in a while and have been ill. I recently bought a bull from Bushy Park and would like to buy another bull. I am looking for a Maine Charolais cross bull. If you know of one that will make show steers in Texas let me know. He would need to be a registered Mainetainer. ...
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
May God's riches blessings flow freely in you and all of your family's life!
Thanks for being a blessing to me!

All of our Gucci calves had the look.... every one of them drew attention from all of our visitors. A long time ago we had Witch Dr. and his look improved our FB's and their size, but they did not have the look that Gucci had. Our average BW on Gucci over the last two years was 71 lbs.
I agree with Mainegirl. I use Gucci on heifers and I have sold several prospect calves out of him. His calves come easy, have good dispositions, develope bone and hair after birth, stand naturally right. My only criticizm of the bull is they are slower growing but will keep on growing. I...
I have 12 yearling registered Maine Anjou heifers that weigh around 1000 lbs and will be ready to breed in December. They are either 75 or 87.5%. One PB is red, one PB is a slightly blue, and the rest are black. They are open and we will have them checked this week. Because of our continued...

Most of our cows are young, only one 10 year old, and one 9 year old. Most will calf in September through November and are AI'ed to Gucci and Smokin Joe and a few others. I would prefer to ship them no further than Kansas or Missouri. I would be willing to purchase some good hay to feed them...
We are in a very sad drought. On 68 acres of oats I got 46 small round bales. I have all my ponds and tanks that are dry and have been for 5 months. I made 12 bushel's of wheat and none of my neighbors cut theirs or made hay of it, as it was too short. You cannot mow my pastures as short as...
Since the end of January we have really been tied up. Dad fell in the shop the last of January. Prior to that he walked two miles per day. We went to several doctors because he was having back pain. Finally, a surgeon operated on him and he had a fast growing tumor in his back that was...
