Howdy boys - just sitting in an airport and thought I would log in for about three minutes. Traveling hard for the U.S. Army at present but going home to fly for the Canuck Air Force next Thursday. I will likely be the oldest Captain in the world, but I have been judged capable - I think they...

What is his background? How do you know what size calves he will throw? Birthweight? Weaning weight? And so on .... You sure they are scurs and not remnants from a poor cutting job? Horned Herf in the background? I have a nice HH bull here that I did a poor job on and he has about 3 inches...

That only works as long as the bull has no STD's - otherwise your herd is now in a world of hurt. Bez!

Moisture on the top bales comes from putting the tarp too low to the ground and at the same time stacking thebales on ground that contains moisture in the dirt. If you stack them on a gravel base this will prevent the moisture from forming on the top of the bale stack. At least that has been...

Look for Bez? soon. Bez!

Consider that saying stolen my friend. :D I buy the posts with points. I bet I have done several hundred miles of fence this way. Made a dollar or two at it as well. All of it went back into my own place. Used a Wheatheart pounder if memory serves. Lay them posts out in the field ahead of...

Relax - Certs is bang on. She will bring it up when she is darned good and ready. If you want to tag and give vitamin shots - now is the time - just watch you back side - I make the wife do the guard duty while I do the the calf work. She can't run as fast as me - so she works real hard to...

Castration is preached by all the feedlot operators I know. Amazing how many folks cannot count to two when putting rings on nuts. Bez!

Yup. Go cut down about 6 cedar trees. Plant the posts in the ground. Use some 2x8's to span the front and the back. Lay some cedar rails over them from front to back - then put some old tin down on top. Finish off the walls with some vertical scrap lumber. Windproof and waterproof. I have...

If you want shade on the corral just put up a tarp on the corner - couple of 2x4s and tie down the tarp. Very temporary but it does work. Bez!

Best time for burning - button size. Small ring fits around the horns nicely. About 20 seconds of burn will create a white ring around the horn - on the head. The horn comes off easily - burn too long and you create more harm than good - burn too little and the horn does not die. Look for the...

Wife and I have driven literally thousands of posts into all sorts of ground. Just be sure to wear safety glasses in case you shatter the top of a post. As a safety demo on what NOT to do I put a dead chicken on top of a post and hit it with the pounder. Makes you realize that is one place to...

Moss grows because of soil imbalance and too much moisture. Soil test will likely show it requires lime. Or you can wait for the sun to dry it out, the cows to beat it up and hope it will go away. If the moisture stays high you will still have moss. Remove the stumps - test the soil - work...

Is it my turn to call YOU "smarty pants"? :D Bez!

Yup - both used in this house and both types of riding here. Bez!

:D :D :D :D :clap: :clap: :clap: Never heard it put quite that way. Bez!

Make sure to drill a hole or two in the bottom of that bucket. We have an old cow - nick-named Jumper. Good old girl that earns her keep - but has "confinement issues". So we keep her in the pasture winter and summer. And we use what we call "her panels" in the garden for climbing crops! :D...

Uh - oh. Maybe the ole Bez! still has his streak goin'. :P :D :D :D 8) Bez!

Yer prob right and you have no idea how it pains me to admit a mere woman could be one up on the ole Bez! But even I can be wrong once every 10 years or so. Bez!

It is always the good ones. Bez!
