Education is the best investment I can think of. This is a good start http://olsonranchllc.com/ . Cheaper than trial and error, will still be some of that though.

Yes

What percentage of body weight of 16% ration + free choice hay would you feed replacement heifers this winter to balance good weight gains and peak maternal performance?

The sell buy profit looks good on that trade and very small price spread on feeders. Slower rate of return

What squeeze chute has the best auto catch head gate?

What works for prevention and treatment of mycoplasma?

Been losing too many calves and some look to be drying up. Trying to make sure I'm not missing anything. Had a bunch of small snails wash ashore a main water source. I'm in southeast Oklahoma just north of the river. I buy cattle out of Arkansas and e Texas too.

Anyone have experience with liver flukes? How do I troubleshoot them?

How wide does a water lane need to be leading up to a pond for 100 or so head?

Get a good order buyer. Think of it as an investment rather than a cost.

Look like the right kind to me.

Likewise. I have a chute going off both sides of mine. One for working and one for loading. Gates on both sides sure help with overly gentle cows.

Depends on what you gave for her and how much it costs to put on a lb? Hard to come out ahead buying 4 wts and selling as singles IMO

I'd sell her as a feeder heifer. Then again I look at things from a financial standpoint.

Nice looking

A 16% commodity ration would be perfect. Sulphur springs, Mt pleasant, Emory, and winnsboro all have decent sales. I would go sit in on one of the NetBIO sales in sulphur springs to get some price points and work backward on what you can pay for some at your local sale.

I would feed them at least 2% of their body weight per day

I'd buy steers to do that at today's prices. Not much total dollar spread between them at 250-300 lbs. Sell them in 90-120 days. Just my opinion

It pays to ship feeder cattle to OKC. Doesn't pay much at all to take one over 700 lbs. Just what I'm seeing.
