I agree with Per, Like Augus 62 says the $ cows are bringing today (Especially if you do not know the cows) I would really think this over before buying 100 cows if one needed to borrow the money, if you have it that's a different matter! I leased cows in the past when I needed my capital for...

Tam, I can pick someone I trust to sit at the table if need be! But you sure can't pick 50% of those that are at the table, and you don't always know their true agenda's, Good for you if your elected officials have always supported your views, but mine not so much. Good luck 101

Tam I agree with what your saying ( IF ) one is talking with people that want to work for the good of every one involved, BUT if you think the people in this administration don't have an agenda, your mistaken, and it is not in your best interest. Good luck 101

Good information Soapweed, When one thinks about the Technology, cell phones, smart phones, and the Internet we have today playing such a big part in the Feds backing out of this, we now know why the President want's to give control of the Internet away don't we???? Thanks Soapweed 101

Jodywy, I thought maybe it was with the hay under a roof, snow is about all gone here with things just beginning to get a green tint here in Western SD. Be careful and good luck. 101

PPR, We used to keep Bone Meal out years ago for Calcium, but can't feed it to cows anymore, my feed rep told me that Milk Replacer was about the only thing that had Calcium in the would actually amount to anything, am I wrong in this? What do you use to add Calcium in your program? Good Luck...

This forum has been really interesting!! Back in the 50"s working at home we never had overeating in our calves, makes one think about why now, most of our cows milk better, calves have better genetics, better nutrition today with minerals and cubes. When I was growing up I can only remember one...

Alpha C&D helps us out and has for years, we also give C&D to our cows and seems to help us even more, Where we run them when their about a week old is on a native Western Wheat Grass pasture, that is only grazed in the spring, usually off by May 15 so usually a lot of old grass from year to...

I agree with LazyWP ??? I had a 91 F250 that you just had to pump and pump and pump, there was not even a bleeder on the darned thing :evil: If you kept at it, it would prime up!! Good luck 101

Back in 1997 we had a vet out Ft, Pierre SD spay 740 hd. of hfr's weighing 500 - 560 lbs and he used the flute, was the first time we ever seen it used, it did take most of two days but we had the hfr's in two different places and had to use and set up panels because of the mud was bad in our...

Well good luck finding any?? I've used Cammmack's , Green and Brown, different posts out of the Whitewood and Custer, bought from a guy peddling posts out of Canada, most will not last over 7 years for us. The best I found came out of Midland SD (Ernies Building Center) but none of them will out...

I have to agree with wdcook something is wrong? How many hours do you have on this tractor? We do not have a 6400 but this series should start down to 10 degrees, I would start with the battery's, cables, and starter, if still starting hard would pull the injectors to check they are holding...

We have used a Koehn for years, it has held up good for us, have had cows step in it and been knocked around and still in good shape, the netting can be a pain at times but holds a calf in well. Good luck 101

gcreekrch I had a few late cows sorted off in a creek pasture that didn't always get checked regulary one spring, I was doing something else and drove by the pasture and this old cow had the calfs head out and she was just eating green grass, it head was all dry just looking around, Well I went...

PATB your cattle look very good, but that looks like a challenge??? What kind of tires do you use, or do you use tracks on your feeding equipment?? Your country looks good,very interesting tho! Good luck 101

Jeff and Hayguy ain't those words the truth, Things were a lot tougher then, I know today I'm 65 and I my Dad would work right beside me when was in his 80's, He died when he was 86 building fence! One of the things I liked most about him was he never let time run his life, He always had time...

Thanks Jeff, I love that kind of history with these kinds of things. I just pulled our 1970 Chevy 3/4 ton 4x4 out for a rebuild, it was the first truck Mother and had together, the things we gave up just to buy that thing, but a lot of memories there, I want to take her for a ride in it again...
