Does it matter if you feed twice a day?

I had a nice surprise the other day. Had the vet check a cow a few months back and she told us the cow was open. So we decided to grain her out and have hamburger. I went out to feed her and she had a nice little blk bull calf lying next to her. The calf's name is Lucky, if he had come a...

What part of Guatemala? I was there in May. Welcome to the Boards.

The guy across the street has 5 strand H - Tensil. He electrifies every other strand. The fence has been there ten years. The only problem is one corner stretch set up is pulling out, because it's not completely inline with the others. I am going to use this for my pasture, when I get to...

My mother-inlaw thinks that it is cute. I think she has too much time on her hands. I would rather have a good cow that takes care of her calf. Although I wouldn't mind giving my boys a calf to raise. I worked on a ranch where the owner would get calves and put four of them on a milk cow. I...

Why would a person want to have calves in the fall?

I had one of those "wild horses". The brand tells which herd and what area the animal was captured at. It was a wonderful horse, but sure liked to get loose. Our county fair raffles a wild horse every year. I have seen some beautiful ones.

I'm hoping someone can send me a copy. It would be greatly appreciated. Just getting started myself. Thanks in advance. [email protected] Damien
