We use all shell products and I had thought about it a time or two. I have called shell a few times to set it up but I always got a bad feeling. I didn’t seam to fit in to there set up. I have ordered right from them a few times but they have a lot of hidden fees if you don’t set up an...

We only need 20 drums for our shop right now. The rest of the drums will go to 2 other shops. 1,500 of the gallon drums would go on the shelf at my store if I can sell it cheaper then the auto parts stores and gas stations. I don’t have a leak problem. I do have a part time diesel truck...

Were running low on oil and antifreeze but, I just found out the distributor I have used for years went out of business right after my last order 3 months ago. I’m looking to buy for my shop, my store, and 2 other farm shops do a group buy. My guess at the order would be 50 to 75 drums (55...

I had my issues with a wet winter and spring and glad to have sun for now. I just hope that the rain has not run off for to long. I only hope that we get a decent mix of rain and sun for the rest of the year. I’ll take the rain for a week if you take the 80 degree sunny days were having in...

I want to AI some Herefords into my Angus (mixed red and black) but I get scared of a red bald calves.

I thought my first post on this was useful. I see way to many people that get into the cattle and go get the cheapest miss bread cattle that they think “look good” and wonder why the offspring don’t bring anything at the barn.

I’m a bit north of you’ll and my family tree dose branch.

After reading this and talking to the wife it looks like were having zipper peas, smoked “slab o beef butt”, homemade strawberry ice cream, mixed grilled veggies, and homemade sourdough bread for dinner tomorrow night.

I keep looking at your avatar and I think the genetics are just a bit off… :nod:

Black pepper is fine as long as you don’t get it in you’re lungs. It will dry up the blood as fast as it can come out of most cuts. It dose not sting, burn, or hurt like people think it dose. We tag as they hit the ground. We work our cows every 30 to 45 days and will band them the first...

I found that ground black pepper is good to stop the bleeding and I have used super glue a bunch of times. I hope it works out good for you. If my family doc is open then I always go there. So far they have only sent us to the ER for when my daughter needed 15+ stitches with gravel removal...

I just woke up at 3:00 am dreaming about the door being shut to the 10’ by 7’ building and it filling with water. There’s only a 2” drain in that building but the door dose open out. Yep Herfrds It sounded like a good plan and it should have worked with no problems. On the pulse side they...

I’m way too young. But OMG at 3:00.
