    Another Craigslist Bulls Opinons needed

    Ok, that's why I was asking how they got the sale order, I didn't know. As long as you know how they do it when you put your bull it would be fair then. As a outsider I was looking at it as if someone had more than 1 bull they would split them and sale some early and some late. Thanks for...

    Another Craigslist Bulls Opinons needed

    I was at the sale last Friday. Gizmo bulls were nice. But I got a question. The split the angus bulls up and sold half at beginning of sale and half at the end. How did they determine which ones went first and last? It was not by lot number. The first group of angus seemed to sale for more. At...

    12 Volt Seeder

    Well, I finally tried my homemade spreader this afternoon. I have some winter mix seed that I bought at Tractor supply this summer. It was on clearance for half price and I got manager to sell it to me for half that if I bought it all. So it was not like I was throwing expensive seed away trying...

    Some advice

    Thanks guys, I put the smallest heifer I got in with him. She is 8 months so she is bigger and sucked down all of food while he looked at us like we were crazy. They are grazing together so maybe he will catch on. I wrote (weaned), should have put "weaned". I ment it sarcastic, because that is...

    12 Volt Seeder

    Thanks for your help. I got several washers with holes from 5/16 to 3/4 that will fit down in the funnel.I'm going to start with smallest that will let seed flow and go up if needed. It wont be adjusted as easy as a gate, but I will be able to change flow.

    Apple cider vinegar

    I heard a webcast that Gene Sollak (maybe sollock) gave last year. He said that was all they used. He didn't like anything that might hurt his dung beatles. He put 1oz per gallon for 24hrs, per month. We are trying it this summer. Our young heifers love it. Granted, we don't have a large...

    12 Volt Seeder

    I was hoping someone might have a store bought one and they could see what their settings where on it. I need a starting point. What do you think about 1/2 inch?

    12 Volt Seeder

    I had a old deer feeder with a 12 volt motor on it. The timer quit working so I mounted it on a container that will hold about 35# of seed and put a switch running to battery on 4 wheeler. Then mounted to the four wheeler rack. Just like the the spreaders you see in magazines. My question is...

    Somebody had better grab this one

    I've been a lurcker on this message board for a year now. Never had much to say, just listen and learn. I don't even claim to be a cattleman. I just have a heard of cows on 30 acres. This is the first time I thought I might comment on something. I have put practices that agmantoo and Gene...
