    Lift Haylage Bales

    Picked up a few bales over the weekend from a guy that used his bucket with a couple hooks welded to the top corners and a chain to load with. After hooking the chain he left enough slack in the chain to slide it over the top of the bale. Then just heal the bucket and the bale up in the air. Did...

The driver, a young man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and YSL tie, leans out the window and asks the cowboy, "If I tell you exactly how many...

    Rained On Hay

    Last weekend I purchase some chopped grass second cutting small bales @ $3.00 a bale in the field. Learning as I go on the subject of quality (legumes, stems, etc.). Rained 1/4- 1/2" Monday.

    What would you do?

    Learning as I go. With an average cow, with average traits, what would you breed for first? If you could breed for only one. Length, depth, confirmation, muscle, or ? Then what? I know there are a lot of variables involved with the question. Just trying to get a feeling for the process of...

    Cycle After Birth

    With all things being equal, how long will it take before a cow will cycle the first time :?: Or are there to many unknowns? Looking for an average...more or less.

    Maine Anjou

    New to the boards. Just curious what your thoughts are on the breed. I have one that just calved a nice little heifer, but I'm not sure I want to stay with her. Haven't really put a pencil to it, but I'm guessing she'll go through 1/3 again as much feed over the upcoming winter as the others and...
