Ookie niskuni! Haven't been on here for a while. Looks like I missed the games! Left Badger Creek in '84. Still miss the country and the people, but not the wind!!

Audrey, Thanks so much for posting the link and thanks to you and your brother for all of the effort you put into it. I would encourage everyone to copy the link and send it to as many contacts as you can. You may think that this does not affect you. You may be correct in that you may never have...

They sure look good Scot! It should be a great sale.

Thanks Coyote! Sure is pretty country.

One other thing to consider is making sure your minerals have chelates (zinc, copper, manganese) in them. We feed "loose" mineral as I think it's nearly impossible for a cow to get a sufficient amount from a hard block. Of course, your area may not be as deficient in some minerals as mine is!

PC, I've had to replace 2 different 12v vehicle batteries this summer. Both of the new batteries tested 13.5 volts when I picked them up from the parts store. If you can get close enough, you might try running jumper cables to the pump from your vehicle battery.

We tried it last year on the heifers with really great success. I just compared the results with my calving record book. The higher the number, the further along in their pregnancy they were. The calving records sure bear this out. We'll be using them again this year.

Thanks, Shortgrass. I've just spent the past several minutes "Turning it Over". What already wasn't too bad a morning is even better now! gcreekrch-You got that right!

Really nice set of calves!

Some really nice heifers!

I thought I'd followed the directions carefully, but the only way I can open them is to copy and paste in the browser. If one of you more computer savvy folks could help, it would be appreciated.

I read the "judge these bulls" topic from MyTfarm. I really like the Muridale cattle. I am sure I will own one of their bulls in the future. Due to the color bias of the buyers, we are breeding for solid red. That said, some of my favorite Shorthorn bulls are roan or even white. OT didn't know...

Shortgrass, Thanks for the reminder! I surely needed this today.

I got an electronic scale off an outfit on ebay called BB Scales. It appears to have everything the expensive ones do. They were real helpful about helping me get the electronics set up over the phone. Our crowd tub and alley are set up on an old concrete apron next to a barn. I built some...

I wanted to thank everyone for the comments on the Shorthorns. Like I said before, I've come to appreciate a lot of the posters on these forums. WyomingRancher- If I ever raise some frame 3 to 3.5 bulls around 1,850 in breeding condition, I will try become your new bull supplier! I will post a...

WyomingRancher and Big Muddy rancher: Thanks for the comments. The skin pigmentation seems fine on these cattle. I'm not saying it will never happen, but I've yet to have a case of sunburned teats on any of these including a couple of light roans I've kept simply because they're such good cows...

I often read with interest, a lot of the comments posted on these discussions. I have come to respect the opinions of several individuals, and would like to hear their opinions on a couple pictures I am trying to post. With the renewing interest in crossbreeding, I have been concentrating on...
