I had an Arabian mare here, the first born on the farm; she's in her late teens, and given me many beautiful foals. One a reserve champion in the Houston (Spindeltop) Arabian show. The first day she struggled with the freezing rain. Then it hit me! Duh, she WAS a showhorse many moons ago. Went...

That's when a jenny donkey is invaluable

Congratulations on your sale prices Adam!

I always understood fancy to mean very nice looking, would make good mama cows. Above average

My daughter and son in law are building a house. The materials are 40% higher than they were one year ago. Jeez!

I guess there’s no one “right” way, but I reviewed my notes on cows for the last 25 years between my herd and my dads. Running commercial Brangus we would have come out a lot better culling around the 10-12 year mark. The key would have been to sell them bred or with a young calf at their side...

15 years ago, no one around my area kept donkeys with cows for protection. Coyote population got large, cattlemen started losing 4 to 5 calves each year to coyotes. Hearing that donkeys have a hatred for all canines, I bought a Jenny for $50 at a stockyard sale. She took to the herd naturally...

WOW. I'd be tired too. I think you've done your neighborly duties for the decade, lol

The one big thing I miss about cattle are the calves! I love watching a bunch of small calves (maybe 1-3 month's old) playing; something naturally innocent and close to nature about it!

I wish! The heat here doesn't start to break until October/November. Many times watching kids trick or treat sweating... :(

Now that looks good! For a second, I thought you were getting weird on me

Cat head Caustic? Care to explain? Can someone tell me why a very revealing picture of Lynda Carter is staring at me? Wonder Woman!

I read where there are 19 BILLION chickens in the world. Only 7 billion humans. That's a lot of chickens!

Backwards cajun talk? I guess we have Caustic to thank for that

Glad to hear you're fighting the fight. Not easy, I know. I remember thinking, "If it kills me, I'll go down fighting". By the way, this morning, while volunteering, I met a 5th patient with the exact same throat cancer as me. He finishes treatments next Thursday. They have a tradition at Mary...

GO TOGERS!!!!!!! And not the ones with an eagle for a mascot either :lol: :lol: :lol:

While it's good to hear a bunch of us have an event in common, it's not good that we have cancer in common. Rollinhills, f. meningitis must have been tough coming off of cancer! My first cousin's husband had the exact same cancer, same stage, as me. He lives in Tampa, but we went through the...

I sold every cow on my place just a few weeks ago. The day after, it's like a big weight had been lifted off my shoulders. Just not enough time in the day to work full time and keep up 80 acres, and the animals. I haven't had the bug YET to get back in.

Good evening all, Some of you may remember: In 2009 I had throat cancer. I was 39 when I found out. I'm catholic, with a 4 year old son at the time. The thought of leaving him without a dad wasn't a possibility. I made many promises to God; if he only helped me get through it. Well, after...

I pull for the stros every year; we normally make a family weekend trip to Houston and watch them at least two weekends a year. However, everyone in our family has saints jerseys. As long as Brees is there, you can't count them out
