    Why should you call a Vet

    It depends on if the vet wants to teach you something or just do their job and get their cheque. I have a vet that dosen't want to teach me anything, so i have not called him in two years. over 90% of the time the vet is late or in a hurry so the animal ends up dying anyways. I have a 3000 head...

    Electric fence

    We use 17 ga galvanized wire with a 18 joulue 110 volt fencer, work great but we only use it for winter grazing so it get's rolled up every year if not twice a year.It's good for 4-5 years.

    how much silage

    I am sure that they will gain weight, how much i don't know. But I would asume that they would eat between 40-60 lbs of silage depending on what breed they are. sorry i can't help out more.

    how much silage

    What is the dry matter percentage of you silage? At 50% moisture they should eat 50 lbs at least.

    Portable Chute

    Looks Good! I think a new one like that would be 2500 for sure, we spent 3500 on our hihog squeeze with no transport. P.S Those headgate cables and fingers don't mix.

    Starter on Case

    looks like maybe a ground that melted..........so probably not a good thing. You could pull it off and see if the gear is jammed.

    Cooking bacon

    Spread it out on a baking sheet, sprinkle some brown sugar on it and throw it in the oven, not too crispy and not too sloppy JUST RIGHT.
