My brother lives pretty close to there and works with my Mom's family on their ranch south of Las Animas. My uncle owns Baca County Feedyard at Walsh, which is about 20 miles from Springfield.

Thanks for the insight Faster Horses...I hope you're right too.

Our ranch was homesteaded in 1885. I'm the 5th generation to run the ranch. In my mind, I've put my whole heart into ranching, raising good cattle, and taking care of the land. To have a project like this shoved down my throat whether I like it or not just doesn't sit well with me. My...

Just curious if there is anyone else on here that is affected by the proposed R-Project, a 345,000-volt transmission line across Nebraska. The third round of 'open houses' is coming up in March. I am very much opposed to this project, and have brought my concerns before them to no avail. We have...

I know how you feel Soapweed. McIntosh ranch sold southwest of Chambers today, 2,359 acres @ $1662/acre average, same buyer took all 3 tracts. We bordered on two sides, but for Sandhills pasture/meadow, that's hard to make pencil.

We do often like the same bulls...I'm usually the one that has the long, disappointing ride home after the sale. :) We feed the roughage equalizer 228 to our replacement heifers throughout the winter. We will combine that with prairie hay, and usually a 16% all-natural pellet. Good...

I'm not sure on that. I know for several years after that they tried to continue to market it, but most everyone in this area wasn't interested in buying from them.

I am located 32 miles from Burwell, and am familiar with the products and with Vince. I ranch with my dad, who has been feeding Ag-West Mineral since 1973. At that time, he was still working with Dr. McDonalds Feed Fort Dodge, Iowa. I'm just 25 years old, so I can't say I remember when we...

Maybe not close enough to give you a comparison, but in north central nebraska--sandhills pasture we are getting $200/pair for a 5 month season with care or $185 if they check 'em. $1.00/day on most of the yearlings. Property taxes keep driving our rates up

That's very possible--either I or my Dad, I know he talks with Wade more than I do at the bull sales. The website needs some new pictures and updates for 2011, but thank you. Maybe after calving season I can get after it. Jorgensen's online version of the catalog is now available so I've...

We have been a multiplier herd for Jorgensen's for about 20 years and I always like looking at Risse's pens of bulls. They really do a nice job. They always buy out of the front end of the bull sale as well....usually all the ones I'm after! :)

I don't know for sure how it works, but I think you have the option to buy your lease bulls at the end of the season from Jorgensen's as well, with the summers lease price going towards the purchase price if you decide to buy. If anyone ever has a chance to stop and see the Jorgensen operation...

We began feeding Integra-mos from Ralco Nutrition last year. Our problem in years past hasn't been as much typical scours--we use a variation of the sandhills calving system and have plenty of room to keep the pairs spread out and constantly moving. Our problem has been baby calves wanting to...

Very sharp website with good pictures and information on the bulls selling. I think you will get along fine with the private treaty setup.

Anyone have any experience or know anything about Sila-Mix II, a hay preservative/inoculant? It is a product of Ralco Nutrition. The local feed salesman has been selling a lot of Gandy boxes and this product in the area. I'm not looking to try to bale hay too wet, but if it would help make...

Soapweed...we sure understand where you are coming from....one 6,000 acre block of Sandhills pasture (no meadows) went up just over 24% in valuation from 2009-2010, just as much the year before to make its valuation increase over 50% in two years. Here at the north ranch which has meadows and...

We are pretty close.....the dam held but the spillway broke loose. I had heard that Ewing really had to work hard and work together to save the town...thoughts and prayers go out to the people who had water damage to their homes in the surrounding communities.

northern Garfield County, the road pictured where it took the pavement out is the Cedar River Road between hwy 11 and ericson

We do have quite a few snapping turtles, but smaller box turtles and water turtles are much more common.

normally about a 2 foot deep creek about 15 feet wide at the most flows through this valley
