I've got something similar to that, thick black rubber, so I'll try that and see how it works out. Thanks for the help everyone!

Thanks for the responses, that was along the lines of what I was thinking. I'm using a prittchard teat, which has a pretty small opening. But I've got an extra, so I'll try cutting the opening smaller and see if that helps. Will the flem just go away on its own?

Hey everybody, this isn't a cattle question but maybe you could help me out. :D I've got a bottle baby lamb about three weeks old that I'm feedin liquid milk replacer from a bottle. He's doing great, happy and healthy, but he gets really bad coughing spells. Everyonce in a while, he'll get...

wow, thanks for all the replies :D they'll have access to a field if i open the gate(s) in the shed. there'll be sometimes when i need to contain them for feeding, halter breaking, etc., so there's gonna be pens in there that i can keep them in for a little while. if i don't need to...

thats where they are now :nod: RR - the only thing i know about from those q's you asked is that we have insulators on the wooden posts :dunce: it's pretty hot (to me, but i'm a lot smaller than a steer) but now there's just sheep goin in there so we should be fine :banana: might have to...

its like we hve curse on our place about fencing. i had two steers in a field with 48 in. woven wire, wood fence posts, and two strands of really hot electric wire on top and bottom. the posts are spaced out a bit, but not so much that it should matter. the steers were tame, had plenty of...

We're gonna be building a new set up for a few head of cattle this summer. I'll be adding sides on to my Dad's garage (since i'm getting kicked out) and making a few pens in there that I can keep cattle in when i need to but also open straight up into the field. It's gonna be three sided, with...

BHB - that sure doesn't sound good :shock: but that won't be a problem since we don't have a milk cow lol TB - no offense taken :D yeah, they are the really lean, muscle tight show pigs. i personally don't like them all that much, but you never know what kind of animal the judge prefers from...

TB - I've got my own theory/opinion that I don't need to bore yall with or make excuses for, but I don't think extra lard is gonna hurt them at this point. So if feeding milk will put on extra lard and waste, its not gonna stop me when I consider all the factors and body type of these show...

Okay, yall might think this is ridiculous, but here goes. I knew a guy who gave milk to his broiler chickens and they were butterballs. I've got market animals (lambs, pigs, and steers) that all need weight put on. The steers just need finish, but the lambs and pigs need all the weight they...
