    Feeling kind of Down

    Easy to get in a hurry, excited or frustrated. Injuries are a problem throughout the industry and only worsens with increased weight- multimillion dollars of loss in the industry yearly. Temple Grandin has a done a lot of work identifying low stress/natural ways to move cattle. There's a lot...

    Crapy Compose pile

    Gimpy, the bolded statements are inconsistent with each other. Maybe you should research the difference between animal manure being used on gardens vs human waste. No possible contamination after composting? So composting in and of itself kills all pathogens???? No it doesn't. Other...

    Crapy Compose pile

    That is a serious violation common sense and an abomination to food safety. :shock: :???: :shock: Vegetable pickers going in the fields is exactly how food born illnesses are often spread. And I believe that there is a much higher instance of illness with vegetables than meat. With the...

    Shopping for a felt hat

    EZ, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe you to be a young fellow that is planning on spending much of your life outdoors. If you have a light complexion, sure give a hat that will cover your ears a consideration. I know too many old men that wore caps that have had pieces of their...

    prayers..

    Really sorry to hear that GB. Those kinds of diagnosis can sure change a person's psyche and we all might react in ways we normally wouldn't. A nurse gave me some misinformation last year. I spent from Friday evening at 5 p.m. until Monday at 2 p.m. thinking I was checking out earlier than...

    sale barn cattle

    Someone unloaded several red angus croses like that year before last. Most were 2 to 4 year olds. Buy of the day, week and most likely the month. Nice young cows that are doing a good job.

    Tweet of the Day

    I don't get on twizzler, but saw this from Stephen King... I think that was supposed to somehow advocate for an ex government employee that has a bit of difficulty following rules, not sure he thought this one through very well.

    Keep your cows in our you could go to jail.

    I was being a little tongue in cheek. And I agree on one hand that the fellow notified that he had cattle out and went back to bed is a worse situation... but the more I ponder on it, I'm not sure it would take a very crooked lawyer to illustrate that opening a gate and not closing it, one...

    Keep your cows in our you could go to jail.

    The idea of negligence is interesting. How many years do you think a electric company crew should get for not shutting a gait an letting 30 heifers and 2 bulls run the country side? 32 head x 15 years= 480 years... maybe divide that by the number of crew members? Or should they be allowed...

    Keep your cows in our you could go to jail.

    Had something similar a few years ago. Missed catching a steer on a place with a lot of brush. Finally caught him up and moved over with a bunch of old cows so he could be sold later that week. He went over two good 5 wire fences and was headed back to the original pasture. Came upon a...

    Keep your cows in our you could go to jail.

    If it is true that the guy was notified of the animal being loose, and did not act on the information, then I'd think hard about voting to convict him of negligence as well. It would be difficult to get up, get around, look for an animal and then make it back to bed in 15 minutes which...

    Wisdom Teeth

    Had mine out, but at least 2 were causing problems. Sure felt better after they were gone. Other two? But I'd rather have gone under the anesthesia and knife just once. My wife chipped her front incisors several years ago. Dentists have built them up a dozen times. They tell her that it...

    Killed a fawn

    We probably don't have the overall number of deer most people have. I ran over one with a disc in a wheat/vetch field many years ago, little guy must of just been born as he wasn't any bigger than a jack rabbit. One of the neatest things I've seen while on equipment was a coyote teaching a...

    Did a tree sprout from a post? There is a line of green locust posts my grandad put in during the late sixties on some river bottom ground that grew into trees. Most of them have died now, but the few that remain are pretty popular with the deer for scrapes.
