You got it! and Bob too.I guess this means that I probably know you but I'm baffled. How about a clue?

Alot of the brandings I've been at have been larger ranches that mostly just used their own crew. At one place I wrestled calves for four springs with the same partner.It was pretty good because we really got to know the job well. The same two older guys roped all the calves and the same...

I hear that Kelly Lightfoot and Shawn Davidson from Assiniboia Vet Clinic spay heifers either the side or the back. I don't know if they use the Meager Flute or not. You probably know about them as it is sort of in your neck of the woods. It is starting to look like there won't be enough...

We have about 75 but there could be about 400 in the vicinity.

In the mid 70's I worked for a guy who got about 500 done every year.He used two chutes and the vet from Wms Lake came out. It took two days and I think he charged $2.00 a head. I don't think there was any loss and only a couple of infections. This was of course by flank incision. It sounds...

You bet! But I think my chances might be slim. I'll let you know.

I am interested in getting some heifers spayed this spring, but I can't find a vet who has ever done it before or is interested in learning how. There are several other people in the area that have also expressed an interest so there could be quite a few to do. Does anyone have any ideas on...

I wonder if I'm out to lunch, if so maybe someone can enlighten me, but it seems to me that cattle as well as any other organic matter just recycles carbon that is already in the environment. I think that oil and gas brought up from thousands of feet down is what increases the carbon in the...

I think now that that saying is more accurate for young cowboys than old ones :( We are only 15 minutes from a vet so we don't do c-sections here but we do prolapses if we have to. The owner pays all vet and medicine costs and always pays on time so it isn't all bad. 50 dollars per head does...

I was wondering if anyone could give me any ideas as to what they would charge for calving heifers. We have been calving from 60 to 120 heifers for a guy for the last few years and have asked for $30 per heifer plus feed and yardage. This year it feels a little cheap though as in the first...

I do remember. It seems to me that there was a dog involved. I didn't think you'd still be mad about it. :)

I'll go back into hiding now. I just had to let people know that the surprising thing is not that you have a goat, but that you just got one. I also don't think it's fair to bring my daughters into this! :lol:

Actually I find it amazing that gcreek hasn't had goats long before this. I thought years ago that he would be a natural. :lol:
