Um, gotta disagree with ya on one point GB, wasnt it was actually the devil that invented the leaf blower?

Yup. Agreed. But not to mention the times Ive been able to write a phone ## or a license plate number in the dust on th dash with my finger. I guess I am blessed.

they do indeed sir! they do indeed.

(not to start a truck war, but this is the last Dodge Im buying.)

Yes, that would look after the max 25 MPH requirement.

Then I could plant rice?

We are 3 1/2 miles of gravel before we get to pavement. Ive given up on washing the exterior, but please, please tell me how to keep the dust out of the cab. Windows up, air on , fan blasting, and 25 MPH. There is a new layer of dust on the dash when I shut 'er down. (I think I can plant...

Had a feedlot customer once told me he was shaking the RB straw off the spike, steers were doing the fresh straw boogie and one jumped just high enough, with perfect forward speed and angle and impaled himself on the spike.

Yup, have done that before too. Thanks for the suggestion. Not sure what your weather is in West Central IL but up here in Alberta where I am it's now 19 below zero F and headin for 30 below AGAIN tonight. It has hit 40 in the hole a couple of nights. It's been this way since mid December. A...

Thanks for all the replies! One idea I have seen before was putting a big round through the manure spreader. Looked like it worked fine. But my cows like to help. I dont even want to think about a running spreader and curious cows................

Ok, between tripping over hidden frozen manure clods, and cows "helping" me bed with round bales, any body want to share your ideas on how to get the cows bedded? FYI, I'm too cheap to buy a bale processor and too proud to use a fork.

Ya, Thats what I thought when a roan recipient cow I had bought was pretty loud and aggressive with her newborn. She did calm down once she had killed the calf though. Gut wrenching to come back out to that. She immediatly began her new career in the food industry......

Many many years back I was that "some guy" that quietly hauled 3 stockers 2 1/2 hours in a U-Haul. Not sure how, but they did figure out what I had in their trailer. I think I'm still on some sort of list with them.

This will be as brief as possible but here is the basic procedure that works here. Start them as young as possible. A scotch comb is my best friend. Stay close / follow the calf gently trying to touch /scatch his tail head. Once you connect, He should love that. This is important:, when you are...

Calved some ET recips this year. Satan had a dispersal a few years back. Im thinkin some of those cows ended up here.

Ok, so I'l do my best to explain. Sit me down and put in front of me a salad made with spinach, romaine lettuce, avocado, shredded carrots, sunflower seeds, with an organic sesame seed and humanely raise virgin olive oil dressing. Next to that put a bag of chips. I'll probably go with the chips...

Central Canada Feeding Station. Is this a place you would unload a few show cattle for feed and rest en route to Toronto from Alberta? What other B & B (barn & breakfast) options are there out there? Probably travelling in November if we're going to do it.
