Clean the inside and ouside of the rim with a scrub brush, soap, and water. Leave the wheel on the tractor. Deflate the tire to just before you break the bead. Fill the tire with water spiked with a cup of orange food coloring. Fill it up with #45 of air and let it sit over night. If you do not...

Sounds like Grimes County. I will start feeding round bales in a week or two.

I agree costs are going up and the sale barn is static at best. I assume this is cyclical. I remember a couple of years ago how the board was saying to enjoy the good times. I heard this recently: "The cattle market is flush and fill. Right now the handle has been pulled and the water is...

I have a 2003 7.3 with 175K on it. 19 mi/gallon on the road empty. 12 mi/gallon pulling 18K-20K load. It would pull more than I felt comfortable stopping with electric brakes. I was responsible for 12 F-250 / F-350 2005-2007's with 6.0 liters. They averaged 15.5 mi / gallon empty and would not...

Contact your county extension agent if you are in the states. It is a State program administered at the County level most places.

Hisache are tough, persistant little critters. A friend of the family had the same thing a while back. If practical, pile them in a central location and burn them. If you shred them in place, the "beans" and thorns will scatter all over. You will have new plants, all over. If you pile and burn...

May have had the same thing last winter. A stem had worked it's way under the skin. Penned the cow, cleaned area with betadine (since I did not know what I would find), palpated the area then popped it like a zit. Puss and the piece of stem came out: cow unhappy... have a good chute and head...

CB (and all) I've read this board for a few months now. I have a tad bit of land and a head or two so I feel comfortable in saying this: I had a few old ranchers give me advice over the years. Most of it was because I asked a question. Some of it was because they saw me doing something wrong...

Talk to the Vet again. I bet there are more folks wanting to AI. Maybe you and them get together with the vet and COOP for the needed supplies. The Vet would cut his fee (or not charge you at all for say 1-year AI Tech service) if you let him keep the tank and non-disposable supplies for COOP...

I just found this website so ya'll haven't heard from me before ... but I have cured this in an industrial setting a bunch of times. Look up by bio and E-Mail me if this is still a problem. I can send you a .xls sketch if need be. Chetski
