I thought the same thing last night while not sleeping.... Since we had our first night in the 40's the grass is done so I ordered a portable sawmill to play with this winter. Always wanted one. I'm 73 now don't know what I've been waiting for.

Not yet.... I'm sure it is possible. Yes, that's me with a fresh outa the oven bull calf that I watched hatch in April. And thanks for the compliment.

Put up more bales yesterday from another pasture. I had moved the cows thru this one quickly as another pasture needed grazing, so there was a lot of excess grass left. Another storm is brewing in the gulf and we are likely to get a fair amount of rain from it so there will be enough growing...

No sir......as a matter of fact I called customer support because I was sure something wasn't right. He confirmed they sent them long because all tractors are different. More likely it is a generic pto shaft for all different equipment.

Haha! No big brothers here.......I'm 73 yrs old and have learned a thing or two. I have a 50 Bota with forks....put a pallet on it and stacked 12 at a time....then lifted them on the stack.

As a wise soul reminded me...Work smarter not harder. My"yard" around my home is old pasture, about 1 1/2 acres, and I mow it with the bush hog. Several years ago I bought a mini wheel rake to windrow the grass. That helped but still left me with hand raking to collect it. At first I bagged it...

I am hooked on these power tools. My husband is a plumber and started with the little makita drills. Thru the years his collection upgraded to the Milwaukee 18v tools he has today. I tried the Greenworks 40v pole saw and then started my collection of yard tools. I have the 12" and 2 16"...

12v lawn mower battery and a $25 10 watt solar panel.

Good morning! I started in with pure Dexter because I read they were easy calvers, size, and cost of purchase. I stumbled across a mini baldie heifer that I bred to a red Dexter bull and that offspring was so nice that I kept him and still have him. He is 5 now and probably around 1000. I have...

We butcher our own. I raise DexterXHereford minis for that reason. I am 73 so the size begins to matter in handling. We built a walkin with a Coolbot temp regulator. It is time consuming work but the cooler allows me to age the beef as well as work on a quarter at a time without the meat...

my son is going to try fencing 130 acres hayfield using 52" cattle panels cut in half , ( he has a good 5 wire fence in place now)I have use hog panels to keep hogs from a feeder : it might work and would save a lot of time and money : has anyone tried this and did it work I cut the high...

I am whipped already and I still have to go to the store and start cooking. I've got 9 coming in for the weekend!

Husband still dreams about that........not nearly as much fun as it used to be...... :hide:

They must have all moved to Nacogdoches. I had a bum calf in May....worked with him for two weeks to teach him to nurse...sittin' in the grass multiple times a day under his mom with him led to a record number of new chigger bites every day. Also pulling ticks off my husband who walks the dogs...

If his teeth are bad it is hard for them to get the nutrition from the flake of alfalfa hay. Lots of folks feed beet shreds without soaking is the reason for shreds over pellets. I use both the beet, alfalfa and cattle cubes for a filler. This is probably no different combination than senior...

I have a 32 year old mare that hauled me all over the mountains safely when we lived in Idaho....she has been the best babysitter horse for kids so is deserving of special care. I have been feeding her successfully soaked feed for at least 4 years due to bad/no teeth. I mix my own "blend" that...

Here daily since '12 but don't post much.....always in a learning mode and really don't have the experience in cattle that most of you do...but I can be taught.

3.5 inches here since last night so far. The loggers pulled equipment out last week....we are a high spot of sand. But the lower areas and creek crossings just can't hold up to that heavy equipment.....don't know where they would find drier.

I have an '04 rancher, and a '15 Honda Pioneer sxs. My husband drives a Ranger....it rides smoother but I don't like draggy feeling it has. The Pioneer is only 50" wide and will fit in a lot of places the Ranger won't. It drives more like a 4 wheeler. We had an '04 Mule that a neighbor is...

I have an MS250C with the tooless tensioner.....great idea but needs more time in development....the chain will not stay tight. The repair shop insisted there was no way to remove that and make it like our regular tension saw. After $170 repair and six months later same thing again I found a...
