Had some last year looked wormy but had blood parisite. Gave Corid in water for 5 days. Took about 3 weeks to turn em around but it worked. I know that Corid is for coccidious but what works just plain works.

Bovishield gold is what i use to use but check out Fort dodge brand. Its same stuff but cheaper

I feed them all hay they can eat,during winter 5lbs 20% cubes hd per day, when grass greens its 6 lbs 20% cubes every other day with feed-n-a-drum feed supplement year round. I try to buy them right so when i sell I still get the same price per lb or more as when they were bought. Watch the...

I just bought 80head 1/2 bulls 1/2 heifers, paid 85 for heifers and 95 for bulls avg weight 375 lbs. going to keep em 9 to 10 months I figure after all said and done hope n to make $100 hd. Might make $50 hd but thats the gamble. Remember paper numbers can go both ways but have to have a plan...

Brought home 25 - 400 lb calves yesterday gave them hay and water. Some really acted starved. today 2 of them look bloated with 1 looking real bloated. You think they over did it first day or did i get a coulple Cronics. What can i do for them?

You just need to decide if u want a single rear wheel or double. A double rear wheel 350 will haul and handle better than the 250 so if u haul a lot then i prefer the 350

smallest and lightest .380 conceal is the Keltec P3 $260.00 fits in front pocket and load with hollow point hydroshock ammo. My best gun is the Glock 23 40 cal w/nite sights. A little more pricey but worth it. Around here police carry the keltecs for back up guns. Most carry full size weapons...

Most steak lovers do not go to wal-mart to buy their steaks in the first place. Most ranchers feeding out steers want pounds asap there will have to be more dollars for quality going to the producer in order to get the quality in the store. I try to feed mine better than they prob need to...
