My sympathies and prayers. I hope all your wonderful memories keep you warm this winter.

I had some of the first SimAngus in my state 14 years ago. I kept all the heifers and boy! did they produce! I didn't think anything could beat them. About 4 years ago I started using some quality Reg Polled Hereford on my brood cows and I got more muscle and another 50 lbs in weaning weight...

~Congrats on your new family member~! How about a group photo with the rest of your dogs ?

Just wondering.... Where are the promised photos of the beefalo heifer ? Been waiting.... :) Where exactly in Vermont are you located ? There is a Buffalo breeder in Townsend VT--Carl Steiner. What an incredible place he has. All his fencing and his custom catch chute are mind boggling~...

~~ If you really care about the health and lifespan of your animals, learn how to read ingredient labels on the dog food bags. Old Roy, and other cheap dogfoods have very questionable and inferior ingredients. There are lots of websites with info on the healthiest 100 dogfoods in the USA, and...

~~ Been waiting to see it. Where IS that photo ? Come on Beefy........ You didn't delete it by accident, did you ?

~~ 100% better than before. Stil getting a headache from the colors, though.

Wow. Thats a good one, Cal~!!

I agree. The great info and the wonderful photos really make me realize even though I live out in the middle of nowhere, there are others doing the same thing with their cattle. Thanks for a great tribute to a good cow.

We had to sell 1/2 of our herd in Sept 2006 because of the abundance of rain from April- December and the lack of dry hay. The person who came to pick out the cows she wanted loaded our boss cow with the group. That cow was the smallest we had--perhaps 1,000 lbs, maybe. I thought for sure the...
