Looks like he has been eating Shredded Wheat Big Biscuits (a Post product) and water for the last four years

My Mom had an aneurysm, she wasn't supposed to do heavy lifting, or any strenuous activities etc. The most fun I remember she had one day was when she ran to head off a small calf, she tripped and fell. She got up with a bit of manure in her clothes, but was laughing and said "I scared that poor...

Tracking collar on the ATV or in a back pack.

Which one ? I was hoping to see pictures of them later.

These type of accidents happen more than we realize. The loss of life is devastating. The impact it has on the individual that fired the shot can be lifelong.

Tedders are really nice to have, especially along the coastal where I am. There are tedder/rake combos, that allow you to change from the tedder to the rake just by adjusting the the angle of the tines.

I had a heifer one time that had a very slender tail compared to the rest of the herd, but she had a normal switch. I thought that was what people referred to as a rat tail. So now I'm thinking that's not what a rat tail is.

I liked our old wood barn. We did finally replace part of the worn out wood floor with concrete, it was easier to clean. We were set up to milk three cows at a time, utilizing six stanchions side by side. While three cows were milking, three were being readied to milk. It was a very clean...

The floor milker and the pipeline were very easy to clean. Do any of those dairy data websites or magazines caution a persson on milking the cow clear out the first time or two?

@farmerjan what you described as the "floor milker" sounds exactly like what we used. When we transitioned to the pipeline, if I remember correctly, it was basically a matter of extending the two lines (air and milk) and the milk went through a line direct to a large funnel with a filter in it...

Floor milker is all we ever used, till we set up the pipeline. They were all stanchion broke and the only thing every used to limit kicking was a short rope in a figure 8 above the hock or a " Cow Kant Kick" apparatus. We had the metal chain kickers, but that could be like arming a cow with a...

There are lots of variables. I really have no experience with this type of project, but was impressed with the numbers. Thank you for sharing :)

Is it fair to assume that the heifers eat as much as the steers ?

Separate them.

Once AI is combined with robotics, then you will have "The Tin Man" running down cows and delivering calves.

Here it is right above CattleToday. Does AI stand for Artificial Intelligence?

Oh great, that will be the next fad. Give the prospective bull a shot of Lutalyse or Estrumate just before the BSE.

I will start asking some people questions on this topic. In the past I had a veterinarian that was actually a "veterinarian". Had not even thought of the possibilities/sources you mentioned.

This area used to have a lot more dairies, beef cattle and sheep. The fishing and logging has diminished noticeably from what it used to be. There were quite a few of the mills sold and literally dismantled.
