    Going to look at one in the morning. 142 hours. Cab, Allied loader with bucket and forks. Always in a shed, pictures show immaculate condition. What were these worth new? It's a 2003 model. Asking $19800. I am aiming for $15k.

    Carcass results interpretation

    I've gotten back some carcass results on some of our calves from 2010. I am not a feedlot guy so I'm not really in tune with what ribeye sizes are average and exceptional or what is the desire backfat thickness. So opinions and advice are welcome.

    Quick question for the solar watering guys

    Putting in a gravity-fed wet well tomorrow. Wondering what type of pipe should be used for the intake. I bought a roll of 4" solid drain pipe, but am wondering if it will provide a good enough seal around the entrance to the well or if the possibility of it crushing it is too great. I'm...

    Class License for Trailer

    This is a question I have been wondering about for quite some time and was reminded about when Bill Homans got ticketed for hauling the neighbors cows. What is the license class required to pull, say a 20' steel cattle trailer, in your respective province? I am thinking MB/SK/AB here but other...

    Winter water ideas

    Need some winter watering set-up ideas for remote locations. Drought this past year really buggered up grazing plans, so some investment is needed this year on the water side. All possible locations have no hydro or existing well/pressure system and I would like all to be designed to function...

    Very sad news

    I don't know if any of our Minnesota or Wisconsin friends on here knew him, but I was just told tonight that Dr. Jon Fistler, previously of Lake Country Veterinary Service in Albany, MN, committed suicide today. He moved into my neck of the woods this year to continue being a DVM and be closer...

    Vermeer 605J

    Anyone have any experience with the 605J? I am looking into buying one at a price too good to pass up. http://winnipeg.kijiji.ca/c-ViewAdLargeImage?AdId=209629684 Coming from a 1972 605C, I'm not too familiar with fancy electronic balers like this. Did all of the newer balers have a...

    Vaccine inquiry

    Is there a modified-live VL5 vaccine available? I was looking at VibroShield + L5, but it's killed. I just need the VL5. Already have the modified-live 5 way respiratory with Arsenal 4.1

    What do you do?

    Wondering what most on here do when they have a calf that won't suck all teats. Have an 8 year old cow with big stout month old bull calf, calf only sucks one tit. Have milked out the cow for the 4th time today, and actually dipped the one tit he does suck, in a mixture of pine tar and lard...

    Ritchie waterer question

    Can't find the sheet of specs for our Ritchie Model 3F waterer. Water bowl sprung a leak (pretty well rusted out) and wondering if I can replace the entire upper assembly (bowl, float, float cover, etc.) with one from the new 3E series. Anyone have the specs on the 3F model?
