    T-post one, me zero

    crazy. All depends on the hospital and place. If its a large network of hospitals it will be a huge bill no matter what. I look for small, non-network hospitals to go to. usually a lot better service and a bill thats about 80% less. Last time I went was around 2019 for something...

    Cowboy stuff is fun

    yea I understand the country.. I'm sure they need to have a little crazy in them to survive in that environment. I move my cattle everyday and I just don't like to go out and deal with some dummy. I've about got them all culled out of my herd so its getting a lot better. My cows are not...

    Fence

    where are you getting it for that? If I can buy some around here for that much i'll use that for my feedlot instead of the fence panels.

    Fence

    well.. talking about frugal.. I've ripped out about every interior 5 strand fence on this place and another I have. I reused all the brace pipe corners and turned them into hay feeders with some other leftover pipe I had laying around. Cost = 0. those feeders will last forever. I took off...

    Fence

    Most places with fence like that are usual high traffic areas / pens / corrals. Your guardrail is what? 100 a section? So with 3 guard rails you have $300 + posts in a 20' section. The pipe is cheaper and easier.

    Fence

    wood posts here rot really fast, if you want to replace the fence in 5-10 years that would be the way to go. (here) Lots of rocks here to break wood posts as well and the pipes being hollow they drive quick. Most of the fence here is pipe corners and tposts running the length. 5 - 6 strand...

    Fence

    That's how we do it around here too. Never have to do it again.. everything is welded. cows won't destroy it. It is expensive but its nice to do it that way. 20' 6 bar panels are around 120.00 each and pipe is around 30-35 each for a 3". I wouldn't do the entire place in it but with...

    Fence

    I was thinking of buying one of those smaller airless paint guns and try to paint the pipe fence that way. painters mitt is too slow.. I want to get it done and I have a lot. Those guns are about 150 - 200 bucks. I found this stuff to put on.. looks pretty good, but I haven't tried it...

    Hogs on milk?

    you said it yourself.. after 260 they just start putting on fat. 240 - 280 seems to be a real sweet spot. We take ours in at those weights and they are perfect. When we moved here we need a butcher hog and called up a local guy. He sold us one of those big old fat ones. (I never...
