    Vegetable oil

    Rule of thumb, max 1lb of fat / oil phpd. Anything more and you will begin to depress fibre digestion in the rumen. Fats/oils are digested only post rumen. Rumen bacteria cannot use it. (think pouring chicken fat down the sink and on into the septic system) Yes, all energy, no other nutrients...

    Picturing cattle is tough

    Your 200 : 2 number is interesting. I always resigned myself to needing to take 100 to get "the" picture. And back in the day, you waited for the pics to get back. No sorting in the field. (pre digital / 35mm SLR era)

    Dust in my Dodge!

    We are 3 1/2 miles of gravel before we get to pavement. Ive given up on washing the exterior, but please, please tell me how to keep the dust out of the cab. Windows up, air on , fan blasting, and 25 MPH. There is a new layer of dust on the dash when I shut 'er down. (I think I can plant...

    Need advise on a jersey

    My understanding is that Jersey has the higest propensity to marble of all the breeds, barring Waygu of course. Had Jersey roast loooonnnggg time ago. Yellow fat but good. And as far as tough.... as Uncle Harry used to say "it'd be tougher if there was none..."

    Straw spreading hacks?

    Thanks for all the replies! One idea I have seen before was putting a big round through the manure spreader. Looked like it worked fine. But my cows like to help. I dont even want to think about a running spreader and curious cows................

    Straw spreading hacks?

    Ok, between tripping over hidden frozen manure clods, and cows "helping" me bed with round bales, any body want to share your ideas on how to get the cows bedded? FYI, I'm too cheap to buy a bale processor and too proud to use a fork.
