Haven't been on here in the last week, lost my mother who fought her battle with pancreatic cancer. NR was an original and it sure is hard losing an icon like himself. I don't post often but follow this board and consider it a family. Prayers out to his family and friends.

Thanks for all the replies. I think that idea died with a big old NOPE!!!

Considering using Chiangus bull this time and wondering what anyone that has used them thought. Good and bad. What kind of cows did you use them on and what do they knick well with. Disposition of bulls and their calves.

Looks like some excellent cow makers!

Sure is pretty country, wish you all could share that green stuff.

situation. I have heard that the Joplin yard was hit for about 7.5 mil from 3 sales. Sounded pretty bad for their future. Supposed to be another sale in maybe Georgia that was stuck for about 4 mil. Bad times.

Nice pics. Sure do have fond memories of my time in Block and Bridle.

Eastern pretty well controls the markets in Ky and it could put several yards out of business. Tommy Gibson has had some big problems in the past but this sounds to be the granddaddy of em all.

It has been unseasonally cool and wet here in central Ky. Temp was about 65 today and more rain. We now are over 10" ahead of avg for rainfall, hard to believe that at the beginning of November we were 13" below normal. All winter we have been saturated and cool. Seven day forcast is calling for...

calves. Good mama cows with lots of good carcass #'s.

in bred heifer sale last week. Bred to half brother, calving ease Angus bulls for 75 days. Brought $925 to $1010 per hd. Sold for $1100 last year but there is just not any one around with hay supplies for the winter. Getting alot of rain in the last month, to bad it didn't get here till the...

in this area. Most kids that want to compete in speech competitions, whether they are from farm background or not, are involved in our chapter. My wife was Vo- Ag teacher for 9 yrs and took her parli team to nationals.

That's what I get for typing while watching tv. It is EHD but while I was watching the news they were reporting in S Indiana, a herd of cattle with what is being suspected as Blue Tongue. The reports that you quoted were in Aug. and the deer deaths have greatly increased since then.

Large numbers of whitetail deer in Western Ky. have died this fall and many cattle are having occurences with this also ( lose couple hundred pounds and walking very gingerly as well as dehydrated, usually do not die). Was wondering if other parts of the country are having this problem. We have...

Had just seen this post about the accident this morning and when I was looking at my old schools's forum later noticed a post about it also. Seems that a fellow Western Kentucky University student who was a women's basketball player had just lost a brother in a plane crash in New Mexico. Sure is...

Just curious if anyone knew of the ranch. My grandpa worked for a ranch back in early 1900's, probably 1918ish. We have some pictures from the ranch: one with an older black man who had the main stud horse showing him off, one has all the hands horseback posing, couple with grandpa at the cabin...

I'll tell you what Jinglebob, I can usually tell alot about a person by some of their beliefs or views and most times, the ones who think all animals should have the same treatment and rights as a human are pretty liberal. A large majority of these people who think it is inhumane to slaughter a...

I am also from Kentucky and can say that I haven't witnessed the wild, turned loose horses but this ban on the killer market is easy to see. There are more poor and thin horses than I have ever seen (drought conditions have just increased this problem). Also, there are a multitiude of really...

nothing but clouds and some thunder. My cattle are also not sheading out like normal, look good and fat but the hair just has not slicked off. Gonna be a lot of cattle moving starting this week.

We had our hopes up that we were going to get the rains that were on the radar tracking toward us but nothing doing. Radars must have changed because it sure showed us getting rain but it never made the ground. Next couple of weeks could make or break. Springs that feed our waterers are really...
