None yet but by the time I get back to some free time hang on to you're hat

Hey all just checking in. Busy for feeding and staying warm,start calving this week excited for that! Well I got to jet take care all blessings yall

I got one of dad's cows good ole 213 who is NEVER IN! I don't even bother with her any more,I keep hoping she comes up empty so I can ship her but be dammed she won't show up open. Best part is dad kept a heifer out of her,apparently the jumping gene skipped generation because her heifer stays...

That's for sure I could loose track of how many calves we've saved by doing a mid night check. Something to ponder is the time you feed,we feed just before dark because a cow with a full belly is more likely to calves during the day light hours. There is a name for the study on that I'll have...

Not really sure never have paid attention,our place is 10000 acres and we graze about 3800 of it any any given time. Right now we got 120 cows on 1900 acres and getting ready to start our fall gather to bring every thing home before we calves.

Considering they bought it new and ran one critter in it ya :)

We picked this nut up last march. Owner ran one yak through it and never used it after that we got it for 1100

He was walking up the ramp to shut the doors on the trailer and just as the last cow stepped in the truck driver who's notorious for this nipped the herefy and she blew backwards in to my grandad.

Not sure it's a older u blade d8 and it's not a high tract...

Well the 215 is the biggest we will drive over they will probably hold our D8 but we don't want to sink our cat and re building a bridge. We've had a dump truck loaded with rock over it though

I'll bite,pampered cattle tend to not do so well in tough times, if that cow cannot raise a healthy calf then ship her. Heifer or not if she's not mothering the snot out of that calf and she's wondering off and not sticking around so it can nurse and get milk she should be reevaluated not...

Yesir its a c215 we have another kolbelco excavator that's bigger with a thumb but it likes to run hot so we use it very little. We've been over the last decade been building bridges across all the creek crossings so we can keep trucks n equipment from getting stuck and tearing up the banks.

I had two pair this fall who spent all summer on the neighbors place,didn't know they were there and he don't mind if a couple pair show up,so trailed them home several times and they kept going back. We'll joke was on them as the bunch of cows they paired up with were all culls. Last trip I...

What happens when four feet or barbwire and fence clips run through your palm An last for the night just feeding stuff

Ya I seconded that,that calf needs the colostrum in the first 24hrs before the stomach wall hardens up. By milking her out and busting the wax plug you run the risk of loosing that lucky the calf probably got the colostrum from the other tits but still.

Well we normally give shots at about five moths,we give a stand alone pink eye,8way with red water "important if you're stock drinks stagnant ponds" and black leg. We worm with a ivermectin pour on once they are branded and wormed again in the fall prior to shipping. With that said we also give...

And view from the seat of our john deere 7520 after a day of seeding Trailing cows home that drifted to far with my old dog I lost few summers back One thing going were big on is keeping good roofs on our buildings regardless,our cabin and some calves not cows Winter range we...

Ya 2min haha typing on a touch screen phone with one to many broken knuckles.

hot shots are like dogs there is a time and a place for them. Gramps was loading cows coming off the permit and was walking up behind the last cow and the truck driver reached in and nipped her in the hock,needless to say she blasted him in the leg and shattered his leg and the belly of the...

There is some truth to that but there is also holes in your statement. How does a person who feeds 4500lbs of hay a day in big 4x4 bales rent or contract out tractor usage? That there would get expensive and about a wash on over head on owning a tractor having your own is a necessary evil...
