I really like everyones "small beef herd" around here. 200 pairs? small. 120 cows? small. crazy cuz i've been all over and I very rarely ever see any herds larger than 50 pairs. I live in cow/calf country and its still pretty rare to see over 100 cows in a place. to prove a...

pipe will drive a lot better than those posts in that rock.

we just got around 5 inches last night. we'll go sledding today b/c tomorrow it will be 42.

I preset the bales out, and then I roll them out with my UTV. Right now I have 12 days of feed out where I do not need to start a tractor. I built some brackets and put wheels on the front of my UTV and unroll the bales like that. works great and cuts feeding time by almost 2 hours.

i usually stay away from anything I have to pay a premium for when I buy, then get the lowest price at the market when I sell. I try to do the opposite of that. but i'm in this business to make money.. $$$$

i don't see much farmland available anywhere. I see a bunch of junk with a bunch of rock, trees and brush. but liek you said.. lots of RV people. They opened up a new lot for about 40 of them near here. 450/m rent. it took about 3 months after they finished and now its full. $$$

i have a hereford bull from teddy. he's not that great.. calves are ok.

well.. you might be able to keep 1 bull on the 5 acres. do you really think you can sell semen to people b/c you bought a bull? These bull breeders are all collecting semen as well and selling it. plant some peach trees instead.

I just saw 15xx lb steers hit 2.20 in iowa and Lowery Land Livestock 80 steers @ 660 @ $340! = over 2200 a hd!

i don't allow wifi on and don't have any ethernet cables hooked up to the tv.

i'll sometimes download youtube vids and burn them to a dvd. then watch it on the tv.

this is why i got all 7' tire tanks and put in 2 120 gallon pressure tanks. they can't drain it.

yea they are all spoiled rotten. I set out all my rolls ahead of time and I always put a roll of alfalfa out there with the others. I'll even put out bales from different fields.. they'll usually have a wide assortment of grasses everyday. fescue, orchardgrass, clovers, alfalfa, johnson...

i feed everyday. other than the poop trail you can't even tell where I fed. Teens isn't very cold for cattle, that feels good to them.

half the day was sunny with blue skies and half cloudy. 42 F

I'd say for brood cows they'd do just as good. In KY i'd use to make a lot of red clover bales and they cows always did very well on them.

I have a 3 point bale spinner and i can make a windrow like silver posted. only downside to this is if the bales are really tight or baled a tad wet they sometimes are hard to unroll. I've been using it for over 10 years. unrolling what they need I get almost 0 waste. I even unroll an...

tickets for tonight.. exciting! I haven't had a break in months.
