That herd of Herefords came with a ratty Salers bull with a broken pecker. He scored about once a month after his injury. That herd/salers cross needed a nickname. All red with some mottled white on the face. Not an impressive cross.

My cousin and I bought 30 head off Herefords one time, 29 were dog gentle. One was a high headed bxxxx who we had to trap to get off summer pasture. All were born and raised on the same farm by an old man who ran cattle his whole life. We had a lot of choice names for her, but what stuck when we...

To a point that’s true but some were just born to be wild, to use a cliche.

Will this pair on bottom go out to range with the rest? She looks to have some age on her. You have quite the mix of colors in the calves, I like it.

I would like to write an extensive commentary on the videos, but the vertigo they induced has left me extremely nauseous and I need to go lay down now.

Nice. That cow looks like she has a lot more years left in her. Always love the baldy calves. If you change your mind on her at weaning time message me, I’m not far away. A splash of color like her would look good at my place!

I’m like the others, the last two really caught my eye. Really nice.

I’m a moron, but am smart enough to know a cow/bulls back foot should cover their front foot’s tracks when walking. Why do these high dollar outfits not follow one of the basic principles of the selection process?

I'll check it out!

Best beef I ever had was a Jersey/Angus cross steer. Absolutely melt in your mouth, good marbling. Holstien/Angus was next.

If there’s a $150 dollar bottle of whiskey on this farm, it’s because someone else brought it over. Distillers Pride is top shelf around here!

My cousin posted the obituary of the young man, he lived another 10-11 days after the accident.

The sidebar article mentions a local shorthorn breeder who showed all over the country. He was known locally as Pop. I got to see some of his trophies and plaques one time when I was in his home, he was very successful.

The young owner is still in the cattle business, but runs a pure herd of fleck style Simmental. Shorthorn was the most popular around here at that time.

My 2nd cousin, the family historian, posted this on Facebook. His brother is in the article about the construction accident. The other man unfortunately died from complications. I thought the champion steer was interesting. Still under the influence of the belt buckle era.

Actually work and holidays got in the way. It wasn't a make or break, maybe next time I'll be on the ball.

It doesn't matter anyway, they sold before I could get there. Such is life.

Braunveigh in the woodpile?

I will subscribe to my dad’s theory. If you want to fight, stick your head up your rear and fight for air. We’re all better than this, gentlemen. Let’s be civil.

If I buy these cows, I’m not doing it to intentionally deceive anyone. I look at it as a lower risk investment. Let’s say I buy a cow for 400 and put a good bull on them, increase the cows value through improved genetics from the bull, sell the calf for 700 why is that dishonest? It’s like the...
