I happen to have some pups that are pretty much self trainers. My male dog helped bring in cows to AI when he was 9 mos old (no professional training just instinct) and my female has had some training and has brought 100 head of pairs across the Niobrara rive all on her own. They have some...
We drove truck for a few years hauling just about everything, and it sounds to my like this truck driver just needed to remove one part of his body from another! Just my opinion though ;)
Just had to share a few pics of my austalian shepherd female and her new litter! Excited to see how they turn out, I have had rave reviews on the last couple of litters, they start wanting to work at 6 months old!! Just had to share....
I will admit that the dodges don't have the cabs/interior that the fords (would take a King Ranch interior anyday!) do and the ride that the chevys do, but cummins has the power (Ours is about 500hp/1000+ torque, hasn't been dynoed for sure yet). We also have a 93 12V cummins and it is still...
I guess I'm not a lot of help either, but will include my 2 cents. I figure if your gonna pull the cummins is gonna do the job. It has to be set up to pull though...the new 6.7L is a pooch and has too many problems with emissions. Unless you spend the $$ and do the deletes they are worthless. I...
Heavy rains are not typical for this area, and to be truthful I don't really know what "normal precip" would be....we just came off of a pretty good drought a couple of years ago and now it is raining like crazy! The farmers almanac says that the average precip for today would be .40 or less...
Still the Belle Fourche river that is running over the street....Hay Creek is up, but seems to be staying barely inside the banks in town....might be a different story tomorrow though!! :roll: We looked at the ball fields night before last and they didn't have hardly any water on them! We are...
We have had approximately 6.5 to 7 inches of rain in the last few days and I thought you all would like to see. Many of the roads outside of town are washed out and Butte and Harding counties are advising that people don't travel them. These pics are in Belle Fourche, and we are wishing for a...
Nuflor.....my family uses this and the Nuflor Gold and swears by it! We weighed the pros and cons of mycotil and decided it was not a drug we wanted around! No one mentioned a calf puller?? Ace is another good drug like rompum. I saw the tubing bag further up, I agree, but may also need a calf...
Thought I would answer, since no one else had. The blue "collars" are merely markers of what horse each is.....kinda like an ear tag. I always said if you have to use them you know you have too many horses!! :lol:
I was just wondering if there was a demand for AI help anywhere around the western SD area. My husband was looking for a way to make some extra $ and has experience. He is certified through ABS and helped a registered angus operation AI for a couple of seasons. Would help if anyone knew the...
Sorry flyingS, I have never had much need to figure the slide, as my folks never sell with Superior or any other televised auction. This is just how the gentleman portrayed it to us. I read your other post though and it was very interesting...thank you for teaching me something new!
in his signature and thought I would share the link to this young man that his family has been friends of our family....I hope you enjoy it, it has some of the scenery from our neck of the woods! Enjoy!

Yet many call dairymen "dairy farmers". Guess it's because they not only own and milk cattle but often raise most of what they feed them. Doesn't seem to bother them at all. :wink:
Good point!! Do you suppose it is because their cattle produce an actual product to sell? (I know calves are a...
My folks take in cattle in south central south dakota and I think they are getting $30 to $35/head/mo...don't quote me for sure. I know they aren't exactly western, SD but I hope this maybe helps. If their leases keep going up though I am sure they will have to charge more for grass. Here is...
