    Strongest fence charger

    Sounds like a grounded out spot on the fence to me. Time to look the fence over real well, check all your insulators and connections...try disconnecting the fence into smaller sections and see if you can get the first section up to full voltage then add another, that makes it easier to...

    Disk mower or hay bine

    Discbine is a haybine with a disc mower to cut the crop instead of the sickle mower. So you have a disc mower that cuts it, then conditioning rollers, then adjustable wings to either lay the crop down in a windrow ready for baling, or leave the wings wide to lay it out flat. Seems like these...

    PTO shaft frustration

    I would take the pto shaft apart, take the protective sleeve off then raise it as far as you can and lower it as far as you can ( suspending the cutter over a ditch or whatever ). The lowering it most likely won't be a problem, the shaft was to short you would notice it coming apart and...

    Weaning weights.

    Those are animals that were weaned at 60 to 90 days. Some folks like to do that to get that high dollar per pound. They can sell for more per pound that way, maybe they are out of pasture/hay and trying to dry the cows off to save what they have left. Hard to tell. Some folks want to sell...

    buying time for stocker

    How about doing custom grazing for someone else? You have the pastures, fences, water already? You could post an ad at the local sale barn offering to graze someone elses stock until you get out there and can start your operation. Otherwise, look around and see what stock is selling for...

    six month old calf

    If that heifer calf came into heat that young ( which could happen ) and the bull tried to breed her, yah that could cause her some injury. You have to keep the bull from heifer calves, starting at a few months old up until 14.5 months or so which is about as young as you want to breed them...
