    What happened to the ground at the Spanish Fork Rodeo?

    The barrel racers were very cautious. One horse jumped the mess in the middle of the barrels. It must be from all the rain they had. I've never seen an arena so bad. I didn't get to watch the steer wrestling or much of the calf roping. I think it was mentioned here that the dogging was...

    Extreme drought in Eastern Montana

    This is what it looks like in Utah and Garfield County, Montana. It's the worst I have ever seen. In SE MT hay can't be found for over 300 miles and then the cost is prohibitive. Those folks are wondering what it will be like next year. So sad. Tragic. And then the grasshoppers...

    Could this be?

    I was reading the grocery ads and ran across this meat for sale: "Natural Boneless Ribeye Steak." I know there is a market for Natural raised beef, but I had no idea you could raise "natural boneless cattle." 🤣 I must be bored.

    He was pretty lucky, considering his injuries and how hot it has been. https://county17.com/2021/07/07/rancher-rescued-after-two-nights-trapped-beneath-4-wheeler/?fbclid=IwAR3Zst_sKnR5x-2iUKNcBhkY_UPBfaiSodbynDDu8ajEWDKDh-UmdMnx7io

    DARN DEER! I took this out my kitchen window.

    Mr. FH put up a temporary fence around my flowers out front (only took 5 years and several replantings 😆 ) and it's a good thing he did. Plus we had a young bear stoll by yesterday.

    The price of hay

    I just called a place up the road, a polo ranch, actually, to see if they have hay for sale. They do. They just cut it. $9/bale and the bales usually weigh 65# he said. That's $270/ton. 😳 There are a lot of horses around here now, not sure how many will be here later on, or what kind of shape...

    Watch Tucker Carlson tonight. Wild Horse advocate is a guest

    We all know the wild horse topic is emotional. She is so concerned that people are getting them, getting their $1000 for adoption, then sending them to kill plants This gal needs to get off her soapbox and find out what is really going on. She bad mouthed ranchers, of course. Isn't that always...

    Spreading fertilizer, YAY!

    Looking into the sun, so I couldn't see to zoom up. There is a tractor and a spreader in the photo, I promise. Glad to get this done!! Thanks for all the comments and help. We learned a lot and we plan to get a soil test this fall.

    Liz Cheney

    Stripped of her leadership role. She deserved to be. She not only turned her back on the people of WY, she turned her back on America. I really wasn't sure the GOP would have the guts to do this. YAY for them. Now if Elise Stefanik will vote Conservative values, that should help. At this point...

    Question on fertilizing hay meadows

    We have people we respect tell us to fertilize our grass hay fields with straight nitrogen. In SW Mt on our grass hay ground we used a blend of Nitrogen, Phosphorus and Potash. Mr. FH cut his cousin's grass hayfield last summer and it yielded great!! Cousin used straight nitrogen. What we have...

    Have any of you tried Garlic in your mineral for repelling flies and what did you think?

    We have a customer that is curious about our mineral with Cinnamon and Garlic for fly control. It does NOT kill flies, it repels them but it does repel other flies, not just horn flies (IGR only kills horn flies in that they hatch prematurely and die) so we are talking two different things here...

    Photos of our ancestors, old farmsteads, old barns, old cowboys, old dogs, old horses. I love all these, so photos please!!

    From 1972, Bronc Riding School, Buffalo, WY. It wasn't a Roping School, I titled it wrong when I found the photo in some old pictures. These were BRONC RIDERS.

    What is your opinion on trying to broadcast alfalfa into established grass?

    We would like to sweeten up an existing grass hay field without plowing it up. We have used a rangeland drill in the past, but there isn't one to rent in this area. So, we wondered if anyone has tried broadcasting alfalfa into the grass hay. If so, do you have any tips that might help? We are of...
