Unless something big happens in the next 2 hours.
Only six lots to sell, three have no bids.
Although the Lot 1 Semen is selling pretty high.

I think the idea is good, but they need much better organization.
Like maybe they should assign each field rep. a month and they should be responsible for finding/recruiting GOOD cattle for the sale.
Or, they could have state sales through it or something.
All i know is that throwing POS cattle at it twice a month (or however often they have it) not only embarasses me as a hereford breeder, but i think it brings down the breed as a whole when the AHA is promoting the site in print/web advertising.

I tried to buy semen on the lot1 bull a while back, I called to order it about 2 weeks after he died (I didn't know at that time) they wouldn't sell me any. One of the better polled bulls IMO.  |

Yeah, I'm kicking myself for not buying some early on too. I thought I'd wait until I saw a number of offspring - and by the time he was getting used more it was too late. The Coyote Ridge Ranch video shot a few years ago showed a lot to like in both Tundra and Durango. That video is located here: www.coyoteridgeherefords.com/females.htmlGeorge |

Tops the "professionally" done videos that were done for RFD tv of places like Holdens and Star Lake, as far as I'm concerned. George |

Thanks for the link, really good video with some nice cattle. If I hadn't have got the Churchill bull I would have got a Tundra son at the Topps sale that year. Don't know why I didn't buy semen on him earlier, wouldn't mind some to use right now.

Think I'll list what I have left of my 29F semen.

It's too bad I didn't see THAT picture of him a while back. I'd probably have his semen in my tank. George |
