I’ve got the same loader on a JD 5083e amd a JD 5075e. I really think your max will be about 2,200 pounds. Much more than a pallet of cattle cubes is all the will take. Check your air in your front tires first because the can’t handle as much as the rears. I picked up a squeeze chute that...

I ran a gyr the last two years but have used a real moderate red Brahman on them too. I used gyr to make more females but the Brahman cross makes great cows too. I A.I.ed two to Hereford last year and it was the worse calves I’ve ever had from them.

I only have 9 head and guess I am lucky but none of mine have bad teats or udders. Other than in the squeeze chute itself they are some of the most docile cows I’ve ever owned. They are also the best babysitters of all the Brahman I own.

i didn’t know if they would need another source of nutrition besides grass and hay with the screenings. They have free choice Purina Wind & Rain minerals and hay all year. If I could feed just the screenings, that would be great. Thanks Gary

It won’t be pellitized. It’s just screenings from the local processor. They said it’s a mixture of types and some whole and some halves. I’m wondering what percentage I could use with low quality co-op feed and maybe with range cubes.

As we are all looking for cheap alternatives for feed, I've found mixed lentils for $120 per ton. Are these any good? Should I be mixing them with me regular feed and at what percentage? Any advise will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Gary

Thanks a lot Brute. You just cost me $119 plus shipping. I don’t know why I’ve never heard of that brand before. I’m kind of a knife nerd and like well made affordable knives. Gary

One other thing. The mx8 and above have two gear boxes and I think you lose more hp to parasitic loss because of that. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong. Thanks Gary

I’ve run an mx10 pull type with my 5075e and it takes all that it’s got in thick stuff. I wouldn’t even try it with a 3pt type. Like said above, the mx7 is great behind that size tractor. I’ve cut things I shouldn’t have with mine more than I care to admit. Thanks Gary

I’ve done it on a few dozen dairy heifers over the years. They were between 3 months and a year old. If they know they have horns, it stops that behavior all together. I use cordless clippers and clip the base right at the scull. I use a callicrate bander and haven’t had any slip off. I feel...

Caustic, where is this show at? Thanks Gary.

Hi all. Got a feed question. I've got a local craft brewery that recently closed and they have about 30 sacks of malted barley left. It says 50kg each and comes from Germany. Would it be ok to supplement me cows with this? I've fed spent brewers grain before but never used it before it was...

I had a similar problem a few months back. I couldn't find a bucket to fit an odd width tractor so I had to do something different. I bought a piece of plate with skid steer latch buckets on it and welded places for my pins to go. Used skid steer and universal attachments stuff is a lot easier...
