We hauled him to K-state and they think he may be repairable. We sure hope so as he has a stand-out crop of fall calves in the lot again. We sent the 3 loads of finished calf feds late last month. The choice select spread is so wide that Joe fed them a little longer to give everyone who had the genetic capability of grading choice or better a chance. It worked and they really cranked on the quality grid Red Angus has with Excel.
Complete data is posted on the carcass link.
Adequate rainfall has given everyone a very optimistic view for this season. Finally, we have had run off to help the ponds out some. Because it was so dry last fall, we are going to have a bumper crop of broom weed in the native pastures. It is a weed that by itself, might be kind of pretty. But out in the pasture it gives off a smell and pollen that irritate the eyes and respiratory tracts of the cows.
