I don't envy where he's headed. Might tell him to watch Snoqualmie Pass west of Ellensburg, it can have restrictions this time of year. The roads are usually fairly good, but it is all the idiot "wet-siders" you need to watch out for.
I haven't heard much about them being bad, just tell him to stay cautios. I know the roads from Spokane to here, cental WA, are good. Where is he headed?
Anyone in MT or ID know of any companies that sell large amounts of posts and poles? Trying to find a large quantity, but can't find any companies through google.
I bought one from Go Bob Pipe that is the best I have ever used and built to last. The bottom is not skirted, but it is amazing how they waste virtually nothing out of this feeder. And it is built to last.
Getting back to the topic, there is some evidence that these calving ease sires used for AI are getting the accuracies because their calves have a shorter gestation length.
Has anyone that grazes corn stalks ever dealt with black nightshade? A field I am about to go to has it in the field, probably 5-10% of the total forage available. The Toxicology professor at WSU said I should be fine unless an animal takes a liking to the nightshade.
Just wondered if any one...
Thanks for the picture and your info in the message. I should probably get in touch with Fulton's and decide if we are going to breed this mare of ours.
We've used them the last two years and wouldn't do anything else. We have lost a few, but did not make too much of a deal. Those calves did not bawl much since nobody else was.
The country is looking good over there, just need a little heat to get that grass jumping.
Looks like you have good taste in trailers, mine is the identical to yours!!
That is not what "fawn calf" is when concerned with Angus genetics. Fawn calves have a bend to their legs which make it hard for them to stand, but it is also not a lethal defect.

This is the sire of the bull I used on my heifers this year. He's got alot of style and his numbers look fitting for a heifer bull.

A good friend of mine has been dealing with this the past couple of years. He runs on leased pasture and runs his cattle seperate, but two other outfits run on the same ranch. He pulls his bulls, but then the neighbor bulls get in with them.
He has been doing the blood pregnancy test on his...
I have two friends that have the Stampede chutes, one hydraulic and one manual. I like the hydraulic, who wouldn't. Both of them seemed a little ackward to me for giving shots in the neck. I'd really like to see a Sioux in person, but the videos of them look pretty good. Might have to make a...
