http://beefmagazine.com/mag/beef_breed/ An article by Roy Wallace and Harlan Ritchie in Beef Magazine discusses some interesting notions about breed histories, in case anyone finds such things interesting.

Hey folks, haven't peeked at these boards for a long while, but thought i would contribute ultrasound data for kicks. My daughter and I took 3 of our non-show type Galloways (low frame scores) to Denver a couple of weeks ago. We had the white bull calf ultrasounded, age 9 mos, who had rec'd 8...

Thanks for the tip Shorthorn and RedBulls2. Is the Lauer herd in Abilene KS, or TX? He might be a good person to discuss the Whitebred vs Shorthorn question with. Does he have a website? Oh well, I can google for that.

Nah, we don't show. Except daughter does 4H steer every year. The blue gray is a good-doing sort that keeps the broader grazing preferences of the Galloway and adds a bit more milk. But mostly I just like the looks of them. :) I guess I'm pretty much a non-conformist. I like what I like, as...

So, I see there are a few shorthorn breeders here. Do any of you know the difference between the Whitebred shorthorns of the UK as compared to a white shorthorn of the USA? I have been interested for sometime in AI'ing a few of our black Galloways to the Whitebred shorthorn to produce the Blue...

I recently wrote an article for the AGBA (American Galloway Breeders' Assoc) that was based on research in Germany. The Image Analysis System (also known as Computer Image Analysis, CIA) is the real truth detector in the world of beef quality assurance. CIA can view deposits of fat down to the...

One question I have had about these RFI tests is how do the evaluations take into account compensatory gain and/or normal growth spurts? Wouldn't those two things tend to skew the results a bit if they happened to occur while an animal is on test? I'm certain they have a means of...

So is it just me, or is COOL basically going to be the front door to NAIS?

Sooo, will producers need a 'producer ID' RFID tag and then another ID that individually ID's each animal?

Admittedly I was half asleep when the farm program came on the radio this AM, but I am quite sure I heard that identification of calves for COOL purposes may kick into effect starting in July of this year. I'm not sure if that means calves born after July 1 2008. Anyway, is RFID going to be the...

MoGal... PureCountry is correct: the Hang 5 genetics are made for grass. Low frame score, lots of meat. They're raised at altitude and walk up and down mountainsides all day long. We've AI'd with a couple of the old Certified Meat Sire sons. On our website we have pictured a H5 Lidey's Dream...
