Ingalls I know some of the next couple generations as well as having a casual acquaintance with Hugh. The character comes thru.

The one that was most accurate was " herefords, they make great companions for their calves, if they can see them" Just flushed the breed entirely for the second time in 40 years. Lower weaning weights, less money down the rail, and more cost to get them there. Because of that, they didn't...

It will work if you aren't dealing with a volume issue and/or are in a low humidity area. Leave the fans run. If it gets cold ( below 0) run them again. Better grain quality with air drying, no doubt about that.

Actually when you look at all the data and not just the part you want to look at--Federal Crop Insurance adds substantially to the coffers of the government. True, the premium is subsidized-- I wont argue that--- but who do you think ends up with the money?????????? The government buys the...

You truly did visit God's Country-- you are welcome to stay longer next time you come up! adr

The truth on SSI? You can't handle it. A--it was set up as a widows and orphans fund B- the average male would not collect, He was dead, 6 months before he could draw on it. C- the average female would collect for something like 18 months before she too passed. And now the one that's really...

3"-4" of heavy wet snow accumulation Rain until around 6:00 AM then turned to snow. Now the power is out and the generator is running. Forcast isnt calling for much improvement. Drought is broken-- tile lines are running and if it ever warms up, we should see some green grass. Last year, I...

It looks very nice. Thanks Again.

The knife that Soapweed put up on here back in late January has arrived! The knife is better than the pictures that Soapweed posted. It is now sitting on my credenza, right below the CJ Brown original painting of Oneills Lucky Boy. Soapweed, your son does excellent work! Suggestion-- dont...

In this state, even a verbal lease must be terminated prior to August 31 at midnight. No termination timely and the tennant keeps the lease at the same terms for another year. Sometimes not followed in pasture situations, but to the letter on crop (including hay ground).

Thx

What I saw was an excuse for HSUS and PETA to continue to harass animal agriculture. An embarrassment to all involved in the cattle industry. Because "there is another sucker born every minute", it is a poor excuse for those that know better to tolerate someone that promotes this type of behavior.

If you are really good and have help, drop the cow with a couple half hitches. Stick an arm in to hold the calf and uterus, have 2 people grab the cows legs and roll her over in the proper direction. Takes 3 good men, but I was on the legs to roll the cow about 40 years ago. No C section...

What did the 124 daughter sell for?

you can get the air cleaner up at cab height with the Kubota. The heater will warm up a newborn calf quickly as well. Have 3 of the Kubota RTV's-- while not as fast as some of the others, the stability, power, and a hard cab with air and heat more than makes up for the difference. Use it...

not a big deal. If you are claiming feedind cattle strictly as an investment, I wouldnt. That classifies it as passive income and loss (heaven forbid). Sometimes can be hard to track, because you deduct the expenses as you pay them except for one thing-- cost of the cattle into the feedlot...

Wrong way to handle this. Should have voluntarily lowered the restriction to 18 months of age on all exports. This effectively raises the standard and over time drives the price of beef higher. Short term, this will be good for the cattle industry, long term it will be a noose around the North...

LazyWP A few years ago, I told a young guy to quit worrying about the wrong things, learn how to keep things simple. Move the little cows out, you dont starve profit out of a cow. He had been AIing cows, doing a poor job, and his calving was spread out. Told him to guy a couple extra bulls...

Read that last sentence that O T copied from the anus beef bulletin " come in, grow and grade" the tolerence for poor growth and/or poor grading cattle is about to come to the end of a short chain. The alternative is lower calf prices.

Since the resident 47%'er of the cattle chat rooms thought is was necessary to reply-- I will answer the questions. actually 4 herds of cows running here-- spring and fall commercial cows and spring and fall registered cows. Registered cowherd provides additional feedlot steers, the replacement...
