Muddy, If the 1st day of Feb is any indication, our Feb will more than make up for the "vacation" we got in January!

January has come and gone so quickly, but wanted to pass on a few photos from the month. Feeding cows on stalks - Bred Heifers still out of grass Some Yearling Bulls Yearling Heifers Some of our 2 yr old Bulls that we sell private treaty Set to start calving any day, hope...

jigs, it was great to meet you and your wife. I was hoping to catch you before you took off, but got busy yapping down in the pens. hope you had a good time. Ryan

I would like to remind everyone that the Kansas Hereford tour is this upcoming weekend. My family will be hosting the Sunday lunch stop and everyone is invited. Feel free to join us for some good conversation, good people and cattle. For more information, feel free to email me at...

Things look great in your country. Green grass and good cattle.

Much like jigs, our place took the brunt of the storms that passed through NC Kansas this past weekend. Took a pretty heavy toll on the crops, but we're a resilient bunch and we will survive. My father and I did a round of the pastures on 4-wheelers on Sunday morning while everyone else was...

jigs, know how you are feeling. lost half of our wheat crop this weekend and god knows how much of the corn and beans. Hard to believe that we didn't have a single field that wasn't affected by either hail or flooding. speaking of drowning sorrows - we will be hosting the Kansas Hereford...

garn, we are located in NC/NW Kansas, about 50 NNE of Hays. We've been really fortunate this year as it comes to rainfall. It was a little wet during calving season, but was certainly manageable. The crops look great though. We will probably be cutting wheat in the next week to 10 days and...

Thanks jigs. We would love to have you back down anytime.

Yeah, those "weeds" were sprayed that same day. I'm sure my father loves me advertising his thistle crop!

I know exactly what you mean. Local co-op's cash wheat bid is -1.30 basis kc wheat. We have some on-farm storage but not near enough.

Feels like summer is officially here in Kansas with temperatures in the upper-90's all weekend. Shade tree was a popular place on Friday afternoon These cows didn't wander too far away from the pond all day On the way to the creek to cool off Definitely a popular place With...

We try a little of everything... We timed AI'd all of our 2, 3, & 4 yr old registered cows this year using the 5 day CoSynch. I read of some really good results coming from this, but this is our first year on the 5 day. But then we also use MGA on our heifers, and a 7 day CoSynch on all of...

Glad you enjoyed the pictures Cowsense. All the wheat down here in Kansas is winter wheat, usually start drilling wheat in mid-Sept and harvest in June. We've had similar issues getting the dryland corn and beans in down here, with planting being extended longer than we would have liked due to...

Thanks for the kind words garn. I don't think I've ever seen it this green in that country, so we feel pretty good about things.

I think the wheat has the potential to be really good this year. There is a touch of rust in it but I don't think it's going to have a huge effect on yield. The weather forecast shows mostly upper 80's and low 90's for the next week, and if that holds true we will be cutting wheat before we...

Thanks Soapweed. I was certainly inspired to post by the various journeys that you have taken us through the Nebraska Sandhills.

Had a nice shower pass through on early Saturday morning, so I spent some time just driving around and checking cows from the road. Beautiful cool, May morning and the cattle seemed to be enjoying it too. Nice and comfortable after the late spring shower Good pickings 2004 Model...

Was able to spend some time home with the family over Memorial Day weekend. The weekend was also paired with the 60th wedding anniversary of my grandparents. But I always love to drive the pastures and check on how the cows are doing when I'm home. I was able to snap a few pictures, but I...

I would just like to say thanks to all the people that referred people to my post. We've been blessed to receive several really good resumes in such a short period of time. It's kind of intimidating when you are in such a rural area and it doesn't seem like their is qualified help anywhere...
