    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    And goats are....what, exactly? Aliens? :lol2: True.. To this point, there hasn't been enough money in goat meds to make it worth the while of the manufacturers.. I totally understand that, too, because most goat owners -- especially the owners of meat goats -- aren't willing to spend...

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    Must be different in cattle.. With goats, the common wisdom says to worm them with either a white- or avermectin-family wormer before hitting them with levasole if they're carrying a really heavy parasite load. Reason being, the levasole -- for whatever reason -- is potent enough to kill every...

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    If I were you, I'd buy it.. Then again, I have goats.. If you don't have goats and you buy it to turn a quick buck on goat owners, shame on you. But, yeah...I'd do it. :lol:

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    Hot dang... I think I just located a partial bottle of sheep boluses! This place sells them by the bolus and some are gone, but he said the bottle is almost full. WOOT :banana:

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    PBS is out of stock.. Valley Vet is out of stock.. Jeffers is out of stock.. My local veterinary meds supply house is out of stock.. All the local feedstores are out of stock.. Apparently, levamisole products simply aren't being produced right now. I've read several different speculative...

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    So...I'll take that as a resounding NO, I guess. :lol2: :tiphat:

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    Here's a link to it on Valley Vet.. Thing is, I can't even find the boluses.. The injectable is gone, boluses are gone...I think I saw some powder swine wormer at some point, but I doubt I could even find that. Everything in the levamisole family of wormers seems to be on indefinite...

    Anybody tried to buy Levasole (of any kind) lately?

    ...with any success? We raise goats (yeah, I know, I know :lol2: ) and the '-ectin' wormers are losing their effect in my area.. Everybody's been using Cydectin for the last few years after Ivomec stopped working, and I know of some folks who have actually lost goats this year to worms even...

    Need opinions on possible truck purchase

    It is a 4x4, but I was mistaken about one thing.. It's a 5-spd manual w/ bulldog -- not a 4-spd.. Not sure if that makes much difference, but I wanted to clarify. Probably should call about it, though it's more than I wanted to spend... The call's free, though. :lol:

    Need opinions on possible truck purchase

    I also found a '90 F250 regular cab longbed with 110K miles, 300-six EFI, 4spd manual w/ bulldog, and it was $2,200. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that you guys would probably be of the opinion that the '90 would be well worth the extra $700 over the '85/460ci. I kinda do too, but.... Well...

    Need opinions on possible truck purchase

    Been looking for a farm truck for a while now.. I don't want anything I'd be afraid to get scratched (or dented) up, which means most of what people consider "farm trucks" nowadays ($40K+) are out the window. Basically, I want a reliable 3/4-ton beater. Called about an old Ford I saw the...

    What to charge my dad

    Let's take another look at everything that's gotta be done... It appears to me that you'd need to be on the farm at least daily -- seven days a week -- pretty much from fall weaning through the end of spring calving (assuming that's how it works at your place).. That's about half the year...

    Winding Barbed Wire

    :lol: :lol: Mine's not nearly as fancy.. It's red, with two long handles and a hardened steel jaw. :help:

    Mastercraft tires?

    I had some Mastercraft Courser AT's in 33x12.50 once... Never could get them balanced right, but then again, they were on a regular cab Toyota Tacoma w/ a 3" suspension lift.. Didn't take much to bounce a truck that light and short and a stiffer-than-stock suspension, so it balancing might not...

    Reckon this is a good deal?

    Sorry it took so long to get back to this thread, gang.. I've got entirely too much on my plate right now. Anyway, I appreciate all the input.. At the end of the day, I decided I'd rather have the money than the truck, and considering I didn't actually have the money anyway, it sorta became a...

    Shed Antlers

    I found one shed while I was out hunting year before last.. Rodents had knawed a little in spots, but it was half an eight point rack with about a 4" brow-tine.. The brow-tine has a very distinctive diamond shape to it, if you look down at it from above.. Almost blade-like.. The next year, I...

    My first auction

    If you buy an animal at the salebarn, you're automatically giving more for it than anybody else was willing to pay.. Given that you're most likely going to be surrounded by people who know cattle pretty well, giving more than they'd give is a pretty dangerous thing for a newbie to do.. On the...

    Reckon this is a good deal?

    2003 Dodge Ram 3500 1-Ton Dual rears (of course) "Quad Cab" four door Cummins 24V Turbo Diesel Automatic transmission Power everthing (windows, locks, etc) New-looking, but plain-jane flatbed made by "CM Trailers" 144K Miles The only thing I could see wrong was that it had a little bit of paint...

    Old Question Answered.

    Not only do they poop in the woods, but judging by the cars in the background, they'll apparently drive all the way out there to do it. Who knew?

    My gift to my Buddy..

    My dad one bought a rebuilt wreck we called the Topo.. Or, the Tempaz, depending. Bodyshop apparently half a Ford Tempo and half a Mercury Topaz, each with opposite end damage, so they cut them in half and welded it up to make one car.. For some reason -- I think just to be funny -- they left...
