Yes there is; I have red angus and some blacks and Charolais; blacks sell for 10-12cents / per 100lbs more in Kansas it’s just a fact.

What kind of grass is that

Do did u start rotational grazing just recently in winter? Try Facebook page Regenerative grazing group loads of Q&A there that I have used. Pics look great: I went to start setting my poles in ground 4 wks ago and ground so dry could not get into ground so I’m gonna wait until next spring...

God how completely exciting

Yes-- i agree with you just woulda been nice to have that 3.75% . Can you recommend a bank, I've got a call now into Ag Direct will see what their rate is. My Awesome Credit Union will loan me anything but wanted better rates than 9%

Wasn't sure which board to put this on-- desperate for tips. IM in Kansas and the USDA/ FSA Micro loans here arent worth the paper printed on; i don't believe these folks want to help anyone. Wanted to borrow $5K for cattle chute/better panels and see how the loan worked. So after filling...

I know this is an old post but I've got an opinion on the USDA/ FSA Micro loans after applying last 2 days. NOt worth paper printed on. after filling out all for MIcroloan now they tell us we have to have a credit - check test AND a bank denial letter in order to qualify. SAYYY whatttt..? My...

OK here you go Tennessee Tuxedo 5mos old pics....not sure you can tell that much more yet. But no matter what she's got in her woodpile shes a decent addition to our brand new herd, good eater, thick, smart and hearty hasn't been too much trouble as of yet. She got weaned this week w/ a horse...

As a Totally New beginner me and hubby are learning so much on here. Course we love to learn most things the hard way so we NEVER forget! :lol: We just separated our first heifer to wean by herself(wish we could have won lottery then coulda bought 20pairs all together but didnt work out). I...

thank you Caustic Burno, glad to hear it; Muddy comments scared me and hubby when we revisited this tonight....don't need a Holstein in this mix. Going to attach her 5mos old pic on here soon. Had to wean her early, big hearty girl. Don't think she will ever stop bawling.

This is our very first calf and we have no history on mama cow, we got her at such a good price were' now a bit suspicious that something isn't going to work right w/her(wont milk, not a good mother etc). Calf born Tues in super mild weather and things seemed to look ok when I got there within...

We are just starting out, and i mean 1 cow at a time, we now have 2 cows both pregnant with 1 calf. Hubby and I want to move our tiny herd to my mothers 6 ft tall CRP grass pasture, 14 acres. Weve had 1 cow on it before it was electrified and she got out went 1 mile down road to a 300 plus...
