Congratulations, they must have been nice animals, hard work does pay off.

I really don't htink so, although one heifer calf has done particularly well but she is a little older. I guess we'll wait and see, he doesn't seem to be getting potty yet and is eating all the time, anyway thanks again.

Sooo, do you think her milk has come back? I've never heard of that, but i agree he 'll have to be weaned on the trailer. She is a smaller framed brangus cross and definitely a keeper, can't wait to see her second calf. Thanks guys.

Ok, a little background, I've got a steer out of a heifer that got really sick about christmas. Took him in and doctored him, and he lived, bottlefed him and turned him back out. He's got a place to get in and get grain daily. Here is the deal, his momma has taken him back just as if he was born...

Well, a lot of whats been said is true and some not so. Around here the lawn care businesses along with construction/manual labor jobs tend to pay $8-10hr, great if your starving but better suited to people that reside 3 or 4 families to a household, which is why you see who you see on...

Hog fan here, I was really glad to see the Tide thrash em. So much hype just makes it sweeter.

I'll probably be banned someday for " not fitting in the proper social setting" " and promoting violence". I say give him his tommygun back.

Anyone from there? Made a delivery there last week and discovered the most wonderful sporting goods store. It was truly like stepping back in time, complete with hardwood floors and true small town charm. I honestly didn't think there were any left, it really was a good thing I was on a schedule...

Man what a game! I'm so proud of those guys and please don't tell me Florida had an off day. Great things to come in the Hog Nation.

My grandfather worked as a "greaser", the size of those wheels really puts things in perspective. Thanks for the wonderful pics.

License plate says OK. but, I think they may be stolen because I don't see an ice chest anywhere.

1st heifer calved yesterday, strong bull eating good, momma got pleny of milk, no asisstance needed. He has some really big forelegs from the knee up, looks kinda funny. I'll try to post a pic this weekend,may have a couple more by then by the looks of things. For now life is good. :banana:

I've really always thought the idea of a minimum wage was ludicrous, 7.15 x 40 x 52= $14872. Generally, but not always, you will get a minimum effort from someone who really doesn't care about your product or service, that is if they decide to show up. Of course if you take a course and become...

novaman, I wasn't implying that you should ignore nutrition. I just think that a lot of folks are spending money that is not necessary, I had what I thought was some really sorry hay and I had it tested. Guess what? It really wasn't that bad nutritionally and the cattle ate it just fine once...

Shoot MM you should be jumpin up and down for joy that you ONLY see 2in. of that white stuff. You do live in Minnesooooota. :lol2:
