I would recommend talking with a good estate planner/tax attorney there are ways to do it to prevent taxes killing you when something happens to your Grandparents or your parents. Pre-planning is the smart thing to do for sure. We started working with a tax attorney 10 years ago and slowly but...

We have been using it for several years, we also get it free but have to supply the containers then pick them up once a week. We sent a sample for testing to Auburn I would be happy to share the information if I can find it. We like it have had no issues with any sick cattle. With our heat...

Well I had the day right but the date wrong, The flush was done today. We got 32 eggs out of the 065/0035 mating and 18 eggs out of the A47/807J mating. So needless to say we felt we had a very good flush. Gizmom

Well the deed is done we bred the 065 cow to FA and the A47 cow to Juneau. Dr. Hinshaw will be here on the 19th to do the flush. Gizmom

Oldblood Thanks for the input that is the kind of information I am looking for, I know FA has alot of sons working but haven't seen or heard much about his daughters. I am looking for longivity and easy fleshing both bulls seem to have this but I also want to keep daughters working in the...

I sure understand where your coming from. That is why I rarely use a young bull from and AI stud I use the wait and see approach. I have seen a number of FA bulls that I have liked, but the proof is in how the daughters work, and it takes years to really know the answer to that. I sure did...

Both have really good dispositions the Lucy's boy is really quiet which suprises me because Lucy's Boys usually have a little fire in them. The A47 cow is also pretty tame but did show some agressive behavior right after calving, but settled down after a week or so. That doesn't bother me as...

It sure looks like spring is early here I am spraying Cogan grass tomorrow. Clover is blooming and so are the dogwoods. I think were still gonna get another cod snap because the pecan trees are not budding yet and you just can't fool a pecan tree. I sure am enjoying this pretty weather my...

I just want to breed good cattle, we have purebred and commercial the main thing is are they worth keeping or not. All of us are trying to raise the best animal we can that meets the needs of our individual operation as well as the needs of our customer. I Gizmom

We sent an entire genetic line to the sale barn for feet as you described. To be honest we thought the older cow had the problem due to a case of foot rot so we trimmed her put her back out. This year we found that her first daughter had the same problem. We loaded both of them and their...
