Saw yesterday that the USDA is looking to reschedule the sweet cheebah down to a schedule 3, along side Tylenol and steroids. Gotta be an election year... they ought to go ahead and decriminalize ot federally. Kinda ridiculous.

In the past I thought this was a variety of fescue. I'm not sp sure that's accurate though. Different growth habit, seedheads have hairs/beard deal going on. It's a completely different color green. It's growing in random spots. Looks super healthy.

With the low cattle numbers and soon-to-be high replacement prices, I have been kicking around the idea of buying well built yearling heifers to turn into breds then sell. Or buy young pairs what're open. Would this be a good play potentially? What's a good alternative move. Breeding cattle...

I've got a 2015 gravely stand on mower with a kohler engine. Been parked for a few years but it's time to get it working again. Was parked due to raw fuel coming out the exhaust and it would barely run. Had another mower so parked it til I could fix it. I've not torn into it yet, but...

Got red, white, and yellow clover everywhere. All from the seedbank. The entire farm is covered in it right now. Seems a good bit of my cool season grass died off last fall due to being so dry. Hoping some of it will come back. Would appear its mostly red clover that has replaced it. I did...

Normally, i band with the first tetanus shot, but am trying to do better. Can't afford to lose any now. Lol I worked calves about 3 months ago. Tags and shots. Had all intentions of getting them up 3 weeks later and doing the booster and banding same day. My question...the 8 or 9 way had...

Anyone deal with pigs? I've not yet. But have an opportunity to get a young red wattle female. Have a friend with a red wattle boar. I'm considering starting some. We've got about 30 acres of woods in back of our farm. It's unfenced and was cut for timber in the late 90's. Can I run them in...

Incase anyone was interested. Thought I'd post a screenshot. Located in Thorn Hill, TN.

What are yall doing with your heavy use winter feeding areas to get them back in shape? I usually let the seedbank do its thing, but am considering some seed this year. Drill or broadcast, whatever will work. Lookin for suggestions. This is pasture/hay ground that has seen 10 to 15 bales per...

Today, I'm buying a used 04 model v10 to put in my 99. Engine has 120k miles. And appears to have been taken care of pretty well. Was pulled from a stretch excursion limo to replace with a cummins. The seller seems trustworthy, rund a diesel shop. I'm buying it from the diesel shop I think...

Going to have to get one for a place with no electric. What makes them work well... any tricks? I have no experience with them whatsoever. Who makes a good unit?

Most of yall probably know this stuff already. Good video to share if you direct market.

Was reading a while back in a Bonsma group on FB about predicting the sex of a calf by how the hair lays down the back/spine of a cow in the last trimester. Heifer = hair standing up Bull = hair laid down Anyone looked at this? It grabbed my interest. Was a result of the calfs hormones...

Late Fall I brought the pairs home from a leased farm. One of them seems to be considerably thinner than the rest. I've wormed her and am keeping plenty of groceries out for them all. She just doesn't seem to be gaining any condition back. Her calf looks good too. She is a 3 year old. First calf...

How does this color pattern poke its head out of the wood pile. I would like to understand. Had 3 of them this year, havent had any before. All out of charolais cross dams. Black Angus daddy raised by my neighbor. It's possible he has a tiny bit of charolais blood from many generations back...

I find myself needing an engine for my 99 f350. Has the 2 valve v10. I've found a couple low mile engines out of totaled vehicles. Found one, 47k miles, from a flooded RV. Found another from a f550 that the cab had burned, 74k miles. Price is pretty low on both. Would yall shy away from...

Lutalyse and dexamethasone, do they go bad? Had them for 12 to 18 months. Clean needle punctures only. Got some that's been kept around 65 degrees and in a dark cupboard. Was going to hit some heifers with it today. Any issue?

Had a 12 and 14 year old processed in early October. Gave the butcher a normal cut sheet with the option to grind it all if need be. I got them back in cuts. Gave a chef friend a pack of ribeyes, ribs, and a couple roasts knowing he'd be honest with me. They came from the 14 year old. He and...

Got an opportunity to buy a well maintained 2011 f150 with the ecoboost motor. It has 113k miles. It's a crew cab truck with a 6.5' bed. Was wondering what yall thought about them. Truck drives real good. I imagine it drives like a new one.

My poor little ol bottle calf has seemingly gotten over the joint infection, knock on wood. She has an abcess in front of her left hip now. It's pretty large. Just realized last night that was what I was looking at. I thought it was inflammation from the joint infection spreading to the hip...
