For those of you that use feed, what do you use? I have my new highlands and they came a bit under weight.(I can see hip bones, tail head etc.... and if they were short haired, I'd probably be able to see some ribs. :( ) We have them on horse/cow sweeet feed, fescue hay (When I can get ahold of...

What the he!! are cow magnets and do people really use them? Hubby just got a dairy products mag in the mail and found this when browsing through it. I've never heard of such a thing. :shock:

I was wondering what you and cattlemen (and women :) ) thought of this program and how it will affect you. Also the difference of larger farms as opposed to small family run operations. There have been discussions of the effect that it will have on the horse community on another message board...

Ok, we aren't going to get a bull right now, since we only have two cows and two 1 month old heifers. It wouldn't be cost effictive right now. Maybe next year or the year after. So we are looking into AI. I have found a white bull and wanted opinions, I don't own him so none of this would hurt...

A husband was in big trouble when he forgot his wife's birthday. His wife told him "Alright, Buster...tomorrow there had better be something for me in the driveway that goes from 0 to 200 in 2 seconds flat or you're in for it!" The next morning, the wife awoke early and, looking out her...

I was thinking about doing AI instead of purchasing a bull since we will only have 8 cows total eventually. I'm not sure how cost effective a bull would be with that few cows. Anyway, I was wondering what ya'll pay for AI per cow. I called my vet and he said it would be $35 per cow plus the $45...

I've seen several of the mineral feeders ya'll have made or bought and was wondering about ones for longhorns. I'm buying a couple of highland cows(due here tomorrow) and I was thinking of how to get them free choice minerals with a feeder, without them getting their horns stuck in it and...

I've heard mentioned that people feed some of their cattle free choice grain. Does that really mean, dumping a bag in a bucket and letting the cow eat as much as it wants anytime it wants?? If not, how do you feed free choice? What works best for you? Also, what is self limiting feeds? How do...

I've heard mentioned here about free choice minerals, well any minerals really. What types of minerals do you feed? Are there certain requirements for certain areas and certain cattle? If so what would you recommend for my area? (Northern NC) Which ones do you feed free choice and which ones do...
