My cousin has a micro brewery and they put all sorts of stuff in their batches. Raspberries, peanut butter, pine bows, guava fruit, coffee etc. I always wondered if anything would be bad for the cows. He gives it to a local dairy that blends it into their mix ration. I'm partial to the...

Never tried the cold water, but we have put a stick of straw up their nose to get them to sneeze to help remove mucus.

I stopped at a local gas station and went in to get a pop. It was almost $4, and I said never mind and put it back.

Around here they sell by the Face Cord, 4ft x 8ft and 16" length. Three Face Cord to a full Cord. Averages $75/Face Cord.

My brother got the call at 11:30 one night from the county sheriff that our cows were out at a leased property about 15 miles away. He said they were in a cut hayfield, out of the road and he would stay and watch them until someone got there. He would be in his car in the meantime because there...

Can you lease just a part of it and maybe try 50-70 head to get your feet wet and get some experience, and maybe scale up next year?

What's the normal stocking rate on winter wheat for a 300 lb calf? Does that go down a lot when they get closer to 600 lbs? We don't have any wheat grazing in out part of the country. Just curious if they do rotational grazing too?

Sounds like the Land of Misfit Toys.

We call those Fleckvieh around here.

We have a JD and a NH 4 basket. Same exact machine, different paint. I think there is a Kuhn model that is the same as well. We've found using golf cart tires work well on these.

I put a 4 basket fold up tedder in the back of a 8ft bed pickup truck.

Found a dead redtail hawk with it's wing snagged on the barbed wire fence.

Cut your bolts off flush with the nut if they are excessively long, or put an acorn nut in the end.

Hay is like firewood and ammo, you can never have too much. 😉

We had one in our area last year that had 5 cubs.

7-10 years ago the general public didn't know what a brisket was. Now every amateur back yard griller has a smoker too.

We had square bales at the bottom of our mow that hadn't been feed out in about ten years. New hay was coming in each year before we ever got to the bottom. When we finally switched to all round bales we fed up that old hay and the cows eagerly cleaned it right up. It was very good quality early...
