Warren has been watching a lot of Ky sales. Hope he seen Paris Ky sale yesterday. Big bulls up to 1.80, cows to 1.49 . Not gonna be many cows going back to the farm.

A lot of discussion lately ablut homozygous black bulls. Here are 2 calves from a 1/2 Simmental 1/2 Angus bull i used last summer. I never tested him so this is all for discussion. He didnt do well on fescue so took a trip in December.

What could be consider for the value of 4x5 corn stalk rolls? I know it very little nutritional value but unrolled what might be the organic and fertilizer value?

Started grazing the stockpile fescue today. 1 day late but ok i guess. Took a picture while i was putting up poliwire and then forgot to get pictures with cows in it. Get more pictures tomorrow. Hopefully can graze until Match 1st.

Yesterday a CT member from a couple hours away came to our stockyard. Best thing was he brought his young son and his dad. I had told him about some Simmental bulls nearby and they stopped and bought one. But the best part was the young son picked the bull. Im talking maybe5, 6 or 7 years...

I study market trends and follow a lot of weekly sales and consider myself fairly informed about cattle prices. Myself and at least a couple others have given some bad advice this summer and fall. All indications were that the calf market was going to stay strong into 2024. A few of us commented...

Simme's comments in the bull sale thread about Phantom Bidders got me to thinking about things that go on at a sale. Registered sales, bull sales, special cow sales, regular stockyard sales. Even goat and sheep sales and horse sales. Oh, farm machinery sales too. As i have stated before i...

Lime truck driver spread 4 ton per acre on some of my hayfields today. Waste of money over 2 ton. If the begining PH was 5.2 what can i expect it to be next year. I tried to calculate using a buffering effect formula but im not smart enough. By the way our lime is cheap so not going to break...

Feeder futures for some months are down today over $5. Corn up, soybeans up, crude oil up. Lots of problems in the US and worldwide may ruin the calf market for a while. Livestock Risk Protection looks like would have been a great idea several months ago. Some months are 16 cents less now...

With all the bad things that are going on now there are still some good folks out there. On September 6th i was admitted into a hospital in Florida with some severe Bowel problems. On September 10th 2 men from here came 600 miles 1 way to get me and my fuel truck. I could not have driven home...

Im leaving later today with a 2800 gallon fuel truck for the northwest area. Probably be refueling power line repair trucks. Hurricane is supposed to hit there Wednesday. Everyone get ready if your in that area. For the hurricane and a redneck in a fuel truck.

Are any CT members or family in the area of the fires. Some friends from KY Forestry left a few minutes ago with some brush truck engines heading to Louisiana. I know CB is near .

Tonight I have been advised of 2 cattle sales being canceled this week. One in KY and 1 in TN..Its only in the low 90's but they are saying its because of the heat. Im sure the TX sales see hotter than that many weeks a year.

I made a short trip today to look at a couple Simmental bulls. I picked up ClinchValley86 along the way and pretty sure he cant find his way back where the bulls are. Had a good visit with Simme and seen some very good cattle. Will go back and pick up the 2 bulls around September 1st. He...

I need to buy a thermometer for checking calves and occasionally a cow. . What are some of you using? Anyone use a thermal thermometer? I want one that's pretty good and pretty tough.That is why i thought thermal.

Seens a news brief that lots of cattle have been lost to flooding in the feedlots of Hereford

Thinking about a new disc mower. 7 or 8ft. Our local dealer has Kubota and Vermeer. Some friends have Kuhn. They like them. Currently using a New Idea 5407 that has cut a lot of hay. Whats good and bad as im looking?

As i travel i often think about places i probably pass that would be a fun 1 hour stop. Places nobody would go on vacation to, just something to see. Of course i stop at most Buc-ee's but what else is out there? One place i have seen signs for but not been to yet is Wall Drug. What are...
