    What do you think of this calf? I need a critique.

    This is the first heifer born here that I've kept and I'd like some input from the group. A Comrade daughter out of a cow I bought as a 400# heifer in the first group of calves I brought here. I took the first picture yesterday evening with this thread in mind. Went out this morning and she's a...

    Old F250 Fuel Issue

    I've got a 1996 7.3 with some type of fuel issue. I don't drive the truck much so of late I've only been using the front tank. I went to fill it up yesterday, and while doing that I flipped the switch to the rear tank. The truck was off, key switch on. When I flipped it the fuel gauge went way...

    Heifer vaccinations

    I bought these last year with the intent of them being feeder/stocker cattle but they weren't worth a whole lot back in the fall so here they remain. I hope to have them AI bred in June.

    Three point hitch question

    The three point hitch on an old Ford I have won't maintain height when the tractors running. It slowly gets lower. It will stay up if you lift it all the way. When it's all the way up it it'll jump every 5 seconds or so. Could this be something simple to fix or is it more involved? Thanks

    Bottle calf wants to drink but can't

    Hello all, I've got a 4-5 week old calf that I've had since just after birth. We've made it through scours with a couple rounds of antibiotics and electrolytes. For the last week and a half she's been eating well (2 bottles a day) and chewing on hay and grain. She still seems frail, but very...

    Headgate brand?

    The pen design thread made me wonder, who makes the best headgate? Not the whole squeeze chute, just the headgate. What design type do you like best? Locally I think I can get Priefert and Tartar. Do the automatic catch ones reliably catch smaller stuff, say 400#? This can be a one man...
