Looking at replacing a heated waterer. Does anyone have a Brower or Pride of the farm plastic waterers ? I believe they are the same exceot for color. They are about $450 or so. Anything would be better than the 30 + year old metal waterer I`m replacing.

Here is a TJ Franchise bull calf we have. I`m going to see how he looks at weaning and maybe sell him as a bull. I`m happy with the way he`s looking and doing so far and his planned mating API is 142 so he has the numbers to back it up.

HPF Quantum Leap TKCC Classified TJ Franchise sexed female TJ Gold CCR Boulder Will be using the CCR Boulder on the heifers and the TJ Franchise sexed on the one heifer out of Boulder. Will also be putting in some Bandwagon X Built Right embryos and some by Grandmaster this year they certainly...

Not sure what part of Tennessee you`re in but I would be concerned about buying the cows to fill the pasture then the land gets sold and you have to sell the cows regardless of whether the market is up or down at that time. In my area if there`s a spot the size of a postage stamp available the...

I never thought I would see the day but here we are. Sadly our current president makes Jimmy Carter look like a genius

I have 6 heifers I will be breeding this fall and have been looking a OMF Epic from ST Genetics. Just wanted to see if anyone on here has used him to see how the calves turned out and If the sexed semen had a good conception rate ?

I wanted the power steering but it was going to cost $3500 more because they were discounting mine because it was a leftover and every other one in stock had other options that I really didn’t need so I opted to save money. So far nobody has complained about how it steers and I use it daily and...

I struggled with the same problem last year. I wound up with a 835E. It was a leftover 2019 model without the fancy wheels and no power steering. I had them put a roof on and I think it was $13,500 and still used the 0 for 48 months option. I’ve been really happy with it so far. I thought about...

Been looking at doing the same. ABS and Select Sires are $50 ST genetics has several options but I don’t see their prices listed I guess you must have to just call them to get a price.

Thanks she is my favorite heifer out of this group. These Simmental calves seem to always have plenty of hair as babies but shed it off in the spring. Usually they don`t hair up as much the next year but as with all breeds there are some blood lines that have more hair than others.

Took this today. I`m pretty happy with the way she`s coming along. She`s a Boulder her dam is a Bandwagon and her Grandam is a Built Right.

I didn`t want to hijack the thread below but I really like the Boulder bull too. This heifer is a Boulder out of a Bandwagon cow that has done well with her calves and they are always puppy dog tame which in my opinion worth a lot.

I`m thinking about keeping one of my Simmental bull calves for a bull to use this fall. I have 16 cows s and will A.I. them first then let the bull catch them. The bull will is out of Quantum leap and a Cowboy Cut cow and will be 15 months old by then I`m thinking he should be up to the job by...

John Deere far and above the rest. Best parts availability and they will be in business long after the others have been bought out or just bankrupt. I just bought a Z930M to replace the 11 year old Z465 that I sold for over half what I paid for it new. Other brands have little to no value after...
