Check with the guys in the back of your local sale barn. A lot of times they are only part-timers there and hire out to do odd jobs elsewhere.

You know you have PLENTY of space for a few more girls in your pasture! For that price you should have already had 'em in your trailer! :cboy:

We just came back from near Westcliffe a few weeks ago. I was suprized at the number of bucks we saw. We got some real good close up pics out the car window. They would just stand there and look at us, I could have thrown a rock and hit them. I want to go back there during hunting season...

I've had one death that I've contributed to lightening. Found her under a tree after a lightening storm, but she looked like she was sitting there with her head stretched out in front of her on the ground. Blood was coming out her nose and mouth. How long after the storm did you take that pic?

It is good to be able to see pics of what different terms represent but it looks to me that picture #17 is a heifer not a feeder steer.

People used to always do that. It was just to show off what they caught. Hanging a coyote on the fence is "supposed" to keep other coyotes away but that doesn't work.

I few infertile boars would do nothing to stop the rapid growth explosion of hogs. There are just too many of them. Constant hunting and trapping is going to be the best means of control, as I don't see how they could ever be eradicated. The thing with hogs is that they don't have a...

I locked myself in the cab of the tractor not once but twice. Both times in a back pasture with no one around and my cell doesn't work back there. I had to undo the side window and it really is not as easy as you would think to crawl out a window that is hard to keep open anyway and trying to...

I've got several brangus cows and a reg brangus bull. I also have 2, 3/4 brahman cows and all of them are just as calm and laid back as all my other cows. Most will eat right out of my hand. Any breed can and will have hot cows, some more then others, but don't judge an entire breed due to a...

Thanks! I appreciate that a lot! I usually sell them in the 600-700 lb range. I've had real good response to my adds. I list them as weaned replacement heifers and I've sold every single heifer I've listed plus a few I didn't even have listed for sale. I've though about offering sides of...

She was just barely bred when you got her, I bet they probably didn't even know unless they actually witnessed the breeding. Fine heifer and calf though anyway. They will do good.

I've been selling replacement heifers for several years now. I'm selling solid black and BWF heifers. I wean them 30 days and give their vaccinations. I price them out about 20 to 30 % above market and have had no problems selling them. The key thing is to have good looking, fleshy heifers...

Very nice bird. Is that you Dun?

I would have never guessed the 1st cow to be 16 yrs old. She looks great to be that age. is the 5 yr old one of her daughters?

What I can't believe is the number of people I see selling 5x5 rounds for $15 - $25. I'll hold my hay over before I sell it for that cheap. We were selling 5x6's last year for $45 plus delivery and had people say we were too high.

Seriously... If you haven't already I would go to your local sale barn for a few sales and see what comes through. Make note of the calves that bring the highest money and then watch the cows come through. Pay attention to the highest priced cows to see what is the market in your area. Watch...

We lease more land then we own. Lease prices are high around here but not near as high as trying to buy more land. The hardest part is finding land to lease and when you do find it it's overgrazed and weedy, usually with poor fencing, and the owners want you to manicure the place and are real...

I lived in California when the "big quake" happened. I don't ever care to feel another earthquake in my life again! Every day there were small aftershocks and everyone made my stomach sink. If you've never felt an earthquake it's like nothing you can even imagine. There's absolutely no way...

How did you lose 2 cows and 2 calves over that bull?

We've had real good luck in the program. Our field agent is very helpful and comes out to our farm if we ask for help and information. We have done quite a bit of cross fencing setting up a rotational grazing program. We are contracted for more fence, pasture legume planting, and livestock...
