    Bad Ass

    This is why donkeys and mules make such good "watch dogs" for goats and sheep. They will protect what they love, and they love whatever they are pastured with. I have a small jenny and I've seen her chase coyotes out of the pasture with both front feet just flyin..........And woe be to any...

    It's realy sad

    Amen to that !!! You can't get people to spay their dogs, they sure won't spend the money to have a mare fixed. Everyone thinks they've got the next big stud horse, trouble is there's 100 more out there, just as good. Then there's the backyard breeder, who just wants to breed ol" maggie...

    polled longhorns ??

    I'd love to have a good shorthorn bull to breed these girls back to, but I'll probably settle for a polled black. I like shorthorn cattle, but we don't see a lot of them down here.I bet you get a lot of color from that cross too. P.J.

    polled longhorns ??

    After reading the post about the "black herefords" I had to laugh at myself, I bought a set of longhorn X angus heifers today. Three of them are polled, all though they look like black and white longhorn cattle. They are all bred to a Corriente bull for March babies, so I shouldn't have any...

    Aussie won't stay home

    I'm kinda embarrassed to tell this, but I need some advise. My 7 year old Austrailian Shepard has started going to the neighbors house and staying. They live about a mile away and swear that they don't feed him or encourage him. (besides, he's never had an empty feed bowl) I have ask them to...

    I'd like to kick some butt!

    So sorry about your beautifull Zelda. I know the pain is causes, it's a senseless death. I've lost a good dog to the same kind cruelty, and it's a terrible pain. Thank you for doing right by her, it showed compassion and love. I"ve got my share of coyotes around here, and I do my best to...

    Commercial Transportation of Equines to Slaughter

    Both sides make a very effective argument. I tend to go along with the alternative side, though. In a perfect world, all horses would have good homes and never be abandond, but sadly, that is not the case. I don't oppose the humane and supervised slaughter of horses, I do vehemently oppose...

    Saddle question....

    Simco is a pretty decent brand of saddle, but the real question is the one you already answered, does it fit your horse....... You can squirm around and get comfortable if a saddle isn't quite right for you, but your horse has to put up with it no matter what. I have three horses and three...

    Its Raining- Its Raining!!!!

    You know, it seems so odd to me how the weather will almost make you give up, sell the farm and just move to town, then out of the sky will come what you need, rain or sunshine. The last two years, '05 and '06 we were literally burning up. We had wildfires every where, starting in...

    Horse slaughter - en espanol

    I just got through e-mailing my senators and congressmen, and sending e-mails to all my friends. They have to stop the shipping of these horses across the borders. I know that something has to be done with all the unwanted horses, and as far as I'm concerned, humane slaughter is a good...

    Horse slaughter - en espanol

    This article was in the Houston Texas newspaper last week. It's a shame and a crime to let this happen. Everyone who has ever been involved with selling horses knew this was coming. I know some people hate to hear it, but I've had horses that needed killing !!! Now, having said that, NO...

    Topps Meat Company Ends Operations After 67 Years

    My son lives a few blocks from the Topps meat comp. ( I know, poor boy) and he said you couldn't get within a hundred yards of that place because of the stink!! He was raised on the farm and knows the diference between the unpleasant but healthy smell of meat processing and the way this place...
