Not bad, we put 1ton an acre 2 yr ago

Yep had my soils tested and will fertilize accordingly. I have 5 pastures. On one of them I spread about a hundred cubic feet of manure mix a week. We'll see which ones turns out better next year. Still using Wind and rain high mag right now. Just trying to get educated on all mineral options.

Anybody using this ??

Took the nose flaps out of the calves and put them in the fence line weaning pen yesterday. I also shot 10cc on the moms cuz I didn't want to hear them bellyaching. One of the cows took off and never looked back, It could care less about that calf. The other one set quietly beside her calf...

It's best if you can get one that fits the the tub tight. Most of times an 18 inch or a 20 inch car tire. If it's too loose they will just flip it over anyway.

Research on lactating women ?? Shouldn't be too hard to get volunteers 😂

Should get mine in the mail any day. I think my wife wants me to try it 😳

What about giving a shot to a steer the day before before it goes to the processor ? Does anyone think that it would help with the quality of meat ? I got some dehorning to do so we're going to try it.

What is the maternal bovine appeasing substance (MBAS) ?

If you're not comfortable doing your own fecal egg count, you can order kits online and ship off samples. FEC imo, is the only way to determine if your cattle need wormed. Why waste the time and money if you don't have to do it? Is your treatment really effective ? No guesswork. Merck will...

We scooped the last calf and cauterized with iron. Nerve block 5 injections around base.

Got to be careful with ringworm ! From MSD: Other species may also be infected, including horses, sheep and also man in whom it may cause serious skin lesions. The zoonotic implications are serious, and once ringworm is known to be on farm all precautions must be taken to avoid spread to farm...
